May In Your Garden

I think I would be disappointed at Chelsea just because you cannot walk around the gardens, so your impression would not be as good as the TV view.

Debbie very impressive I would think it will be fine with just the top layer. I turned all of mine, just because they fell that way, I have sown it with poppies as an experiment.

FC will you get first dibs on the rescue plants?

Wintersong put your feet up and have a nice iced tea.

Lottie what sort of cake?

what to pinch out????

I have never pinched out lupins or sunflowers. but agree with figrat about the sweet peas.

Help

Try Russian vine, if it is get rid of it

cutting garden

This is so variable, I sowed seeds that were due to flower in 6 weeks(according to the packet) and the poor weather  in April and May means that they are only 2 inches tall.  I have some seeds that say 10 weeks and they are struggling. It would also depend on the facilities you have and location. At this time of year I am doing much better with biennials.

Which annuals are you trying?

Can I reccommend this article

planting into garden

I have spent the last 2 days planting out like crazy, if I do not get them in soon, my clay soil will have backed hard. I am in the south-east?
