I bought some gooseberries, rasberries, blackcurrant and redcurrant bare roots from lidl, only the redcurrants have leafs. the others have buds but there not open? Some of the blackcurrant buds are opening but it looks very brown and dry is that ok? is it not very late for the buds? will they survive?
Could you tell me what perennial plants that like limy soil and are low maintenance?
In its third year my paeonia has 1 bud, but no more. It does not seem to be opening and the bud is covered with ants. it is in a south facing raised bed, but would not have much shelter. soil is slightly limey and fairly rich. plant is about 2 feet high. any suggestion
This years Rhubarb has gone very thin and it was well manured with horse/household compost as it is every year. It was also split about 3 years ago. What can be done to improve it?
I'm looking for Dahlia 'Bishop of Llandaff' to plant in front of a purple Cordyline (Crocosmia 'Lucifer' behind). At what time of year are Dahlias generally available to buy from garden centres?
