Talkback: Mind-your-own-business

I have found the best way to treat "Mind-your-own-business", is to pour boiling water on it. This kills the plants right down to the reasonably shallow roots. Do this in spring and Autumn, and they will never come back. Thank you Buddy I have been by rucklidge

Is it worth having a garden professionally designed?

Screening

about privet? http://www.hedginguk.com/privet.html is a site you can look at. Pyracantha is horribly spiny but would be good if you didn't mind that. What about Eleagnus or Photinia Red Robin? I have Eleagnus Gilt Edge which has gold around the leaves by carney

Our NGS Open Day

garden is fantastic Fabulous, Pam. Loved your excellent commentary too...somehow I guessed you would have a gentle voice. Comparing with my own patch, I could draw comfort from knowing my tomatoes & runner beans were perhaps a smidgen ahead of yours by lilylouise

Talkback: Valentine's Day flowers

to readers, who could then research further, if they wanted to, and make up their own minds. Happymarion – your garden sounds wonderful. I like your idea of taking photos of the flowers rather than ruining the display. When it came down to it, I couldn’t bear by Kate Bradbury

Depression and how gardening saved me
