Anyone got any suggestions for plants that'll creep through the gaps between paving in slightly shady spots? Soil is average loam and limy. I've done your bugles, sedums, violets, tiny ivies and london pride, and whatever I use needs to be pretty by auntie betty

Slugs and snails - help needed!!

they are a living organism with a 'use by' date The ivy is probably a place that snails will 'snooze' in during the day. Regular searches & stamping on any found is one option I suppose. Nemaslug, nematodes, only tend to work on slugs I thought. Growing by fraggle84

Soil Problem

of years ago, before I moved in to my flat, there was ivy growing in that soil. Could that be to blame? Or is there something else in that particular patch of soil which is causing the problem? Could the previous occupier have used a strong weedkiller by Kerry Ward

Problem soil near sycamore

for beneath the canopy & around the trunk- Ivies (sorry), Lamiums, Vinca, Ajuga, small spring bulbs will grow happily though these until the canopy closes over later in the yr. Cyclamen. Bergenias & Heucheras & some hardy Geraniums will cope too. More plants by Mrs MacGregor

north faceing wall

about climbers to fit your criteria. I grow a lovely ivy called Buttercup that grows in sun and partial shade. The leaves are a beautiful shade of yellow. Gold heart is another ivy I grow. It's a bright variegated form I think may grow on north wall by Alan4711
