We have a nice little piece in Feb's Country Living 'In the garden'
page.
We didn't know anything about it until a friend emailed me last night,
so
it
was a lovely surprise in the cold and wet of winter! *On the same page
is a
new plant to me Hacquetia epipactis which apparently likes shade. *It's
lime
green with a yellow centre and looks idea for a darkish corner.

I went online to take a look and I can't find this month's
edition!!!!!!!!!


Any chance of cutting and pasting it??????????????????


I'll scan it in and email it to you.


Me too, please.


Okay. *All I have to do is remember to bring it upstairs from
downstairs....... *;-))


and put it in the scanner face down

Did you watch Victorian Farm? They showed how to store mangold worzels in a
clamp in winter. You can do the same thing with potatoes and other root
vegetables. AFAIR the straw was covered with a *layer of earth.

I watched that last night, it was fascinating, but what hard work!!!
In Norfolk, where I used to live, it was a common practice to store
root veggies, i.e. carrots in this way.

Sacha kindly sent me the scanned item. Ray and the Nursery seem
pretty famous, did you see him on t.v. when he as talking to Angela
whatshername?
