I'd leave the second for a while and see what happens - wouldn't be surpised if it puts more leaf on, and might be a little treasure. Might well be a skimmia but...

But I guess it's a good time to ask what you want/need in your garden, what aspect it has and what the soil's like?

You will not look back! I inherited Bloke's mother's Kenwood last summer, don't do too much fancy baking, but now make all my own bread, and it's just....fab!

Hope niece appreciates it.

How do I get rid of Ivy from the rockery?

Oh, backto ivy...if digging everything out and getting rid of ivy roots manually isn't an option, then thingicides (Glyphosate the general choice) painted carefully onto growth should work...eventually.

By the way, can you tell me how to stop my computer writing in this minuscule font?

Try holding down control key and clicking plus key (minus key to revert to normal when finished).

Works for me!

Left the roots in after clearing last year's crop, they've survived the winter and putting up new growth.
