Re: Gardens


I seem to have 1 step forward and 2 steps back with my garden at present, I have loads of tubs and baskets which are doing well, but the garden is another story, all this bloomin' rain means as I live in the country, all kinds of weeds are popping up!!!

Re: Gardens


My garden is suffering..... the top baskets of my flower fountains now look very straggly, the wall containers and the wheelbarrow which are planted with petunians have practically flattened and have no shape to them anymore

The weeds are doing well though!!

Re: Gardens


My lovely rose in the front garden took a real hammering - two branches have been nearly snapped off and the flowers are looking so sad. It was gorgeous a week or so ago and smelled lovely. My smoke bush has also suffered a broken limb.

Re: Gardens


My garden has taken a real bashing and has left me very disheartened. Oh for some long lasting sunshine. Summer? what a joke.

Re: Gardens


Plants in my garden are growing very well, unfortunately the weeds are growing even better!!!! The borders are starting to fill out and my veg patch is going very well.
