Enter the detail of your question BRIEFLY (in up to 100 words).Hello Gerry,I have just taken down 3 Leylandi and another hedge bush at the back of my garden. I am having a a wall built instead. The wall will be 180 inches long then a door/gate about 30 - 33 inches wide and a short wall of 32 inches. It will be about 7 feet high.As I am on slope of a hill the top windows of the houses at the back of me will now be looking into mygarden and can see into my sittingroom as I have an 8 foot patio door with a small patio outside it. My whole backgarden would be about 34 foot long and 22 feet wide. It will be walled in now completely.My house is in a terrace - the middle one in a block of five-.My question is: What could I plant at the back wall that would grow up a few feet above the wall for privacy but would not require alot of maintenace -would there be any small trees that would suit? What would you recommend?
I have roses planted along each side of my drive-way, but some are badly diseased and need to be removed. What kind of plant/s would be most suitable to put in the subsequent gaps?
I have a well-established artichoke (globe) bed which I am in the process of tidying up. They need splitting and thinning which I have never done before. Is it OK to spilt them at this time of year and what is the best and easiest way to do this? Sharp spade or something more subtle?
Hi Gerry, Our tomato plant seems to be in trouble. The edges of the leaves have gone brown and now the fruits are going black before they ripen. It appears that the top half of each fruit turns black - the half furthest away from the stem. The plant is growing in a large pot in our south and west facing porch. Is there any solution to this? Thank you.
