Sorry Janet, but political correctness really has infected gardening,
like so many other activities. time for a rant.

For example, in the old books alpine gardens used to be considered an
interesting challenge. Nowadays, I suppose that, notwithstanding
hosepipe bans, and if an ex-Sheffielder is still allowed to comment
on Mancunian rainfall (a nonrenewable resource of course), a rockery
in that fair city might well attract a bit of neighbourly tut-tutting.

Sorry: I can be very dense, so bear with me. What exactly do you
speculate would be the political reasons for tut-tutting about a
rock-garden?
