Larkspur and Monkshood

I have set some seeds from my daughters aconitum but they are showing no sign at all, i wonder if they are fertile, or if i should have bought seeds.
I have the original plant now in my garden and its grown huge, even with the cold weather, she was worried with her littluns round it.

Larkspur and Monkshood

I think you should bring them in Sam, as hollie says, she sowed them in the summer as well for the following years planting, if you leave them out there is a chance they may rot.

You could ask at your local garden centres, they sell stuff off cheap at diiferent times of the year, they may do you an even better deal as its for charity.
You may also like to look out at our seed swap thread on here, put up what you need, and what you can offer, you may get a packet of seeds for the price of a stamp.

Seeds are up

Have just brought my dahlias into the conservatory, not warm enough in the greenhouse. I can hardly move in there now, usually the fucshias are out in a plastic greenhouse, but apart from it blowing away last year, its just to cold, so with them, the geraniums and the begonia corms now planted in 7-8inch pots, its getting a bit silly.

What has happened???

Hey Sam, i know someone who uses facebook just because he is a musician and needs it for business, he and his family call it arse book.

Lost and found in your garden

Sounds like St Austell where they mine the china clay, they landscape them with trees and grass, and make lakes that are coloured turquoise blue.

Lost and found in your garden

Thats really beautiful Sam, i keep finding stone cores, about 2inch diameter, i think may be left from mining days, a hole appeared in the lane last year, we had a look down ( as you do) And it was a mine shaft. They put mini traffic lights there, for a year! Then the council tipped a couple of lorry loads of ready mix down, scarry really.
I love digging into the earth, something satisfying, and bck breaking!

Alyssum

japanese knot weed

Some time ago it was feared that this stuff was going to become a real pest and people were asked to contact their local council if they saw it. I dont know if they re still doing that, they used to come straight away and kill it.
Maybe worth a phone call?
