Just seen this article about gardeners receiving unknown seeds in the post.

However tempting it is, don't plant them!

Any ideas on this one folks?

The tree is about 30 - 40 foot high, the fruit / berries are soft to touch...

   
   
   

    This arrived yesterday but needs identification and a name. Suggestions please

Gardening is very visual for me - my phone always runs out of data as I take so many photos. So this thread is to post your tomato pics. I haven't grown many interesting ones this year but I'm hoping I will get some new seed for Christmas....I'm already planning next years!

These seems to be the new hip term being floated about.

I personally have practised this type of gardening for years but they have eventually came up with a name for it. It basically means, forget about crop rotation, forget all you have read in books, do what you think is right and will work,mix flowers fruit and vegetables, create havens for wildlife to name but a few ideas.

Just basic common sense really

Almost all garden gnomes have red hats. 
It's just a little gnome fact.

I'm trying carrots in pots for the first time and have sown some Amsterdam  Forcing in a couple of MFBs to eventually go undercover to extend the season.  What soil have those who do this regularly found to be best.  Ordinary sieved garden soil, bought compost, or a mix.  I'm assuming undiluted home made compost would be a bit rich.

Does anyone know what this plant/shrub or whatever it is is please?

Afternoon folks

I have some leek seedlings that are still fairly small and currently in one pot. 

Could I pot these on into loo rolls then into the ground in about a month?

Sorry never grown them before therefore a bit unsure re timings?

It’s that time of year again.  You know when it rains constantly and you never see a butterfly    .
In case anyone wants to take part. Here’s a link.

I’ve downloaded the app in anticipation of a nice 15 minutes when I can sit and watch for butterflies     .
