Tulip Buds dying
disappointing tulip displays recently. Yes, I agree. Tulips do need water when growing, and have to be watered when in tubs if there isn't enough rainfall. This happened to many of mine, and now Tulip Fire has spread through the lot.  I sincerely hope this isn by Glensnan

modest hellebores
disturbance either so are best planted out and then left in situ for a few years.    You could try growing them in a raised bed or large trough to reduce the bending but I find most of mine show off their flowers quite well especially after I've pruned out by cloud8

Talkback: Autumn gardening jobs
now. I have to restrain myself from putting cardboard out for recycling as it will all be needed on my raised beds. I compost everything possible and only let the green wheelie bin have bramble roots and yucca which will not rot for me as I don’t want by James Bond

plants on a tree lined back drop
with contrasting heights, leaf forms and sizes.   If you do some research, you can have something in flower every month but most perennials will die back underground for the winter and thus leave the evergreens and bare stems on display.    Plants by biggarden_smallknowledge

Clematis in pot.
a couple of wide but shallow pots that I put a kind of hanging-baskety display into every summer. I sit them in the top of my clem pot both to cover its scruffy ankles up and keep its roots cool. Works really well. Saves the bedding competing by jean riley
