There is mature woodland on two sides of my garden with an abundance of ferns growing. I would like to transplant a small number of (mature) ferns into a shady bank inside my garden and was wondering if they can withstand tranplanting and whst is the best way to do this? (when etc)
I have been told its a good idea to dig in old ashes from the fire, coal, wood, briquettes etc, is this true?
hi,gerry,i planted a blackhamburg 25 yrs ago in a unheated green house.i traned it as single rod.the rod developed to 25 ft and produced about 30 bunches of lovely grapes.but for the last three years it has produced no flowers or fruit but plenty of lush foliage, I did all the necessary nipping out each fruiting stem is based 1 ft apart. The rod is planted in a 3ft square. Can I get it to fruit or is the vine exhausted? Its a very mature vine and I would be reluctant to loose it. Hoping you can help. Blackburg,

I have two mature grey sally (willow) trees growing on the boundary of my rural garden. These shed lots of seeds during the late spring, which means lots of seedlings all over my flowerbeds. I also have an ash tree which is threatening to stifle a neighbouring beech tree. I plan to have these cut down and paint the stumps with SBK Brushkiller. Is this a sutiable time of year or should I wait until Spring?
In our garden there are hundreds of tiny white shells (like sea shells).we have never seen what lives in the shell.occasionally we have seen them on the tarmac and stuck to the windows of our house. do you know what these are and how to get rid of them. the garden is a new garden, approx 18mts. we only noticed these things about 6wks ago
