You did, but in the very last line which could easier have been skipped
over. I did wonder why you were cross-posting to a UK group....

Good point. I chose the UK group because after a week of browsing it
seemed a little better than the other NG I browsed. Maybe that nation
of gardeners cliche has something to it.

Most of our regular fj.life-in-japan posters wouldn't know a garden if it
grew under their tatami.

That's no excuse.

One of my neighbours raises strawberries in old tatami (outside).
Unlikely to ever read fj though.
