Every year some of my Victoria plums get a fungus like scab, shrival up and then fall off the tree. I know I'm too late for this yearI but I was wondering if you could tell me if there is anything I can do to avoid this problem next year.
My hydrangea which has bloomed every summer and all summer was late flowering this year, but now a few weeks after blooming they have all died, leaves withered and brown and leaves look burned and mottled. What has happened?
About this time last year or a little later we purchased2 clematis for our garden back wall and trellis.Over the last 2 weeks or one flower began at last to appear very slowly on one of the flower plants but didnt flower fully and then slowly died. Over the last few days the leaves of the flower now up to trellis on the wall started to go brown yellow black kind of and now it looks dead, though the stem appears to have life still.What could be the cause of this as we got plenty rain etc.The clematis flower is sown at the bottomn of the walland slightly shaded by a fuscia plant which has also always struggled with its leaves yellowish but never dies.There is another fuscia fhedging plant closeby on the same wall and this is doing very well with green leaves and growing mad.Curiously another clematis flower on the same wallis also slowly starting to flower fully and looks in good health.Why would you think the first clematis flower has failed and can it be rescued as doesnt seem fully dead on the stem we hope?Also any suggestions why one fuscia plant is doing better than another at the back wall?
The leaves on the tips of each branch of my 7-8 year old ornamental cherry look as if they've been burned.
I was hoping u could tell me what is the best type of weed killer to get for a grave,my dad passed b4 xmas so its almost 8 months now and the earth has settled,i want to put down weed killer as although ive raked and weeded the grave regulary they keep coming back,i suppose all the rain we have had hasnt helped!! also after weed killer whats the best gap to leave before peat moss and then grass seed.
I have an area in my garden that I planted some shrubs and trees in which is 19ft by 19ft. Prior to planting I cut the grass in that area down to the lowest. I would like to make this area into a rockery. I have bought a sheet of weed control fabtic which I intend laying in this area. Would it be okay to just lay this over the ground now or do I have to get rid of the grass completely? .
