Yes, yuk
I hate slugs. Well, my peas are growing
Tiny shoots are showing, this a first time crop for me.Still disappointed with my runner beans
only seven growing and still not halfway up a cane, tho' some are in flower 
We have the same amount of French beans and they are flowering too and about a foot tall!But I still love gardening
I'm very jealous of you gooseberries Barry

The label on it is too far down and would have to be cut off, so I cannot see it being done for a joke.Bit like buying a puppy and it not being the breed you thought it was, I like the plant, I'm not exchanging it

enjoy your one raspberry Janela whatever variety it is . You lucky woman, my blessed things have got a virus so I doubt I will be eating any raspberries red or yellow
Growing plants is worse than raising children

Re: The Gardening Year 2013
Hello I had beautiful potted plants, yellow snapdragons, fuscia & pink dianthus, celosias, etc & the intense heat we'd had for a couple of weeks killed everything I watered them quite a bit but nothing saved them.
Stores pretty much quit selling annuals shortly after the season begins so I'm out of luck now.
