No - you cannot show me where my advices have been wrong other than
showing me posts where people took it in a personnal way and dragged
family and work in the process. I have never given a bad advice.The
first argument here was about cordyline - I had suggested the use of
copper though it would have required a large ring indeed. Then there
was the 'frost in Manchester' where I was told we had it until end of
May which is untrue. But then again someone who doesn't live here
argued with me and started talking about my organisation. And it goes
on and on you see. It's not about advice, it's about personnalities
and yes, I give as good as I get.

Still - it doesn't really matter as long as you stop saying that I
give bad advice or show me the proof. It's only fair.


You have a very selective memory about your own actions. There are
numerous incidents, as we all know.

One of the very earliest I remember was about rhododendrons and how long
they take to flower from seed. See the thread titled 'shrub ID please'
from November 2005. Read your own responses in that one. It's got
steadily worse since.

QED.

And while we're on the subject of what you do, and before I give up a
lost cause - another of your unattractive traits is quoting info culled
wholesale from websites, but without giving a reference or
acknowledgement of the author, and thus giving the false impression it's
your own work or knowledge. You've been picked up on that too, but it
still happens, e.g. there was a question about agapanthus varieties
IIRC.
