Welshonion, for what I know it was all a bit strange. She lives up a lane with a few houses around but no garden ponds, although there I'm sure there are some natural ditches close by. They just appeared, she said it was of almost bibilical amounts! They were so tiny they hopped under the doors. We just thought that they all lost sense of direction and just followed each other.

She had maybe 4 cats at the time, they didn't know what to do with them.

They were all released into the garden and it's never happened again

This forum is great

Cut some of them this evening to bring indoors for the first time and the smell is amazing. They do work as cut flowers. Looking forward to cutting the sweet rocket next year that I have been growing

It's very strange, I've seen ajuga in flower and the spring bulbs that have been sprouting I think are grape hyacinths. Some of my primoses have small flowers on them. figrat- bet that looks lovely but who would have thought it in Sept

HI Tim, Sounds like he will be fine to let him go, if your worried you could put a meal out for him too. For what is worth I think you did the right thing in drying/warming him up before he gets put back out

ID help please

I have this growing wild outside my garden, thanks for the id- flowers are really pretty and I think they are good for birds as well.

I received all my plants at the end of May and they are now all in ground. they all have done really well- a couple of the delphs have flowerbuds developing

What is this plant or weed?

A while ago I got some oxalis from a free T&M offer, I did some research on it and I only planted the bulbs in a large pot, I'm so pleased I did. I don't like them at all. I would just apply weed killer to the leaves and try to kill it off.
