    I’m so sorry this hapened to you. I hope it does not have a lasting impact on your natural gift of being generous, kind and giving. In the long run you will be happier than shw will be are a result of her dishonest ways.

    An old Italian lived alone in New Jersey . He wanted to plant his annual tomato garden, but it was very difficult work, as the ground was hard.

    His only son, Vincent, who used to help him, was in prison. The old man wrote a letter to his son and described his predicament:

    Dear Vincent,

    I am feeling pretty sad because it looks like I…[Read more]

    Have you looked at vertical gardens?? I know there are some systems out there that are expensive and don’t work well but there’s a new one which is simpler, less expensive & is better for the plants because they don’t grow stuffed in bags or weedmat. It’s perfect for covering a fence, it’s called Wallgarden

    The least expensive way to build a greenhouse is to bang some short lengths of steel rebar (concrete reinforcing) into the ground and place a length of 20-25mm high pressure plumbing (as opposed to irrigation) polypipe over them to form a hoop. If you want a long tunnel then you may need to run a length of the same polypipe down the middle of the…[Read more]

    The above info on Romulea also applies to angled onion/four corner garlic/Allium with the white flower.

    Although it is often easier to pull out the bulbs of this species.

    As for grass in your garden beds…..the strategy will depend on whether they are annual or perennal grasses.

    Annual grasses – most of these will be killed by dilute (10ml concentrate per 10L of water rather than 100ml concentrate). The foliage of your shrubs will be burned but most woody shrubs will recover, especially if you hit only a small…[Read more]

    Onion weed? Do you mean Romulea rosea with the star shaped pink flowers?

    If so it is a very difficult weed to get rid of. Hand weeding is useless unless you manage to get the bulbs out intact. And they seed prolifically so if you fail to prevent them from seeding then it is a case of 1 step forward and 10 steps back.

    The only practical way…[Read more]
