Hi. I'm a 15 year old looking for work experience in Belfast or near to it for 4 or 5 days in November. I was just wondering would any big name stores take me on in there gardening section such as dobbies or b&q or would i have more luck with a small nursery or something. Is it likely that any places to do with the gardening industry or something similar will offer me a part-time job or apprenticeship once i've left that year?      Sorry if there's any spelling mistakes lol

Bonsai

Thank u. I've bought a book and a pair of bonsai shears. I bought some japanese maple seeds but i am unsure if they will be that easy to grow. Do u know of any other trees that are good for beginers to grow?

I am a 15year old boy and I always want to look for different intresting plants to grow. The latest one is bonsai trees. I would like to find out some information on growing them, and the tools and equipment I will need. Any sort of information will be valuble as the only thing i know about them is its a Chinese art in manipulating a trees growth.

The net might be the best idea because my garden isnt that big. Thank you

Caterpillars

Hi guys. Last summer i had a huge amount of caterpillars feeding on my spring cabbages. There easily could of been hundreds of them. But i just want to know a few ways to prevent butterflies laying there eggs in my garden (except for not planting floweres as i dont anywhere near them) or/and ways to get rid of them ORGANICALLY if they do decide to feed on my vegetables. The strange thing about this is they even ate the leaves of my rhubarb as i have heard to be poisonous. A reply would be very apreiciated
