Gardening anyone?

[Mups]

Would anyone be interested in a gardening thread,  or do you think not enough people would be join in?

Just sort of . . .  what we're growing this year,  flowers, fruit,  veg,  what problems we might be having, good crops or bad, etc . . .
What do you think?   Would that be too boring?

I'm well known in gardening circles for my brown fingers so I won't but I'm sure many will and indeed already have in various posts in the past.

I will add that this year I do have an especially good crop of dandelions growing between my paving cracks but the grass and moss are not producing much of a show yet

I'd be up for one Mups.

I'm not an avid gardener, but I enjoy pottering, and our little patch is looking quite good.  Lots of cyclamen in the tiny front garden, they spread every year, no effort from me!

Yes, I'm in. Not so busy a gardener as I used to be, try to keep it an easy to manage garden these days. Big shrubs mostly, I like my long trough planters though, I have 5 of them. At the moment they still have polyanthus in them for winter colour. Too early to get the summer bedding plants yet, next month will do that.

I am pleased.  Thanks very much Granny, Raven and Vlad.

I will give it some thought on how to start. 


In the meantime,   have a look at the gorgeous colour of one of my Agapanthus last summer.
I love these, and have got quite a few in different colours.

And some of my white Agapanthus. 

I'm enjoying seeing everyone's pictures.   The Primulas always look lovely, don't they,  such vivid colours.   

Does anyone grow much from seeds or cuttings,  or do you mostly tend to buy plugs?
How are you getting on with these new composts we're stuck with now?
