Hello Gerry,I was given a present of a vine about two and a half years ago. I was told to put the root outside the greenhouse and bring the rest of the plant inside. This I did. How long will it take before I can get fruit from it? Has there been an article in the IRISH GARDEN? I have almost every issue since it first came out.Dick Roche
Planted two years in unsuitable place. Can I move them now?
My neighbours cat has been scratching one of my trees in my front garden and the bark is pretty much gone from the tree now. How can I stop the cat doing this? Does bark need some treatment now? What can I put on tree to prevent it in future? Many Thanks.
Hi Gerry, I have been looking for a plant known as "Mother of Thousands" Saxifraga Stolonifera.tricolour. Can you recommend a garden center that might stock it or could it be available by mail order? I have tried National Garden Center in Kilquade; Johnstown Garden Center and some local ones without success.Any pointers would be greatfully apreciated.Paul
Hi Gerry, I had a beautiful display from Begonia Bonfire this summer and wondered what is the best way to save it for next year? do i cut it back? lift it? it is in a pot. Thanks
Hi, I have three oak saplings growing in a single pot. I sowed them as acorns 2 years ago and they are now very tall (tallest is about 4 foot) with lots of big leaves but they are quite slender.I was wondering when to plant them out - I am in a very open area and it can get quite windy. Should I risk it or split them into seperate pots and leave them for another while ? Thanks
