Lily beetle

not produced many flowers this year. I dead head them when they have finished flowering and feed regularly, any tips to encourage them to flower next year. I also re-pot them in new compost in the spring. Are they just coming to the end of their flowering life by SilverFairy

Wildlife Ponds

these to create shallows (5cm deep). This is where frogs will spawn in spring. Choose a sunny site for your pond and inlcude lots of native pond plants - such as marsh marigold, frog bit, hornwort and brooklime. If you do sink the tub - which is fairly easy to do by MrsSpratt
