This group's topic is UK recreational gardening.

There is no reference to 'recreational' anything in our charter which
states:


uk.rec.gardening To discuss gardening topics relevant to the UK

THE CHARTER:

To discuss gardening issues relevant to the UK. These will
include flowers, shrubs, trees, fruit & vegetables, lawns,
houseplants, beneficial insects & animals, soils, composting,
design, location, situation, seasons/times, hard structures
(paths, greenhouses, cloches, rockeries), ponds, tools &
materials, weeds and pests & diseases. This is not meant to be
an exhaustive list.

In the absence of more appropriate, geographically specific
newsgroups, discussion of gardening in Eire, the Channel Islands
and the Isle of Man will also be welcome. Because there are
climatic, legal, cultural and other differences, discussion of
gardening in other parts of the world is OFF TOPIC (there are
other regional gardening newsgroups, and the global
rec.gardens, one of which may be more appropriate). Please note
that this exclusion relates to subject matter, not people, and
posters from around the globe will be welcome to participate in
or initiate discussion of UK-relevant topics.

Specifically, please remember that there is no direct
correlation between US climate zones and the climate of the UK.
