Passion Flowers Progress

STeve @ 8:13 pm

The BBC Gardners World passion flowers are doing fine outside, the most tender one under a drinks bottle with the hope to keep it slightly frost free.   Two of these I expect to die right back for the winter, the third one might do to.  The big question being, will they come back next year?

Plants for dry places from Gardeners World

STeve @ 9:47 am

The front garden is nice with all the wild flowers that we have sown, but this year they did tend to take over a bit.  So the plan for next year is “cone shaped” and here is a deal from the BBC Gardeners World magazine that will get it started.   These offers, £2.99 a go, seem like a great way to populate your garden.

New Lavenders from Gardener’s World

STeve @ 8:56 pm

I sent off for these from the BBC Gardener’s World which were free of charge with the magaine (I just paid P&P).   They arrived by post and I have potted them up and kept them in doors.   I will prepare some ground in the front garden for them.
