On the whole, horticultural fleece might be safer and you could build a frame covered in plastic to act as a sort of mini greenhouse, perhaps? I actually have a spare greenhouse frame, one of those metal ones with shelves. If you don't put the shelves in it would hold the Bougainvillea. Good idea.

Have a look at the web sites of Plant World in Newton Abbot one day and also Secret Seeds, if you like unusual! There's a gorgeous thing called Thunbergia greggii romping up a pillar in our biggest greenhouse. I love Camellias but I think that's as much by association as anything else. They have a long flowering season, if you grow different species and there's such a wonderful range of colours, too. I have a wicked black-eyed Susan, Grape vines, Bougainvillea, Ipomoea, cacti and several strange veg and herbs. Photos would be nice.

If she has been acting maliciously, as you suggest (and I'm not in a position to say whether she has or has not) wouldn't the most effective response be to simply ignore such remarks and not rise to the bait?

I have no idea who or what you are referring to, there, so cannot comment, except to say anyone advocating unmerited physical violence to anyone, regardless of gender, is barking up the wrong tree, in my view.

Obviously, neither of us knows whether anyone e-mails her in connection with other group members (unless we're in the Secret Police), my response was to Fran's implied assertion that any such claims are false, which, speaking from experience, is not necessarily the case. Nonetheless, Fran has good grounds for saying what she did. Experience teaches us that many people who claim to receive all these emails turn out to be the people that most on a group avoid like the plague. There may well be people who email Puce with support but considering how many people feel she's in a fair way to wrecking this group (see fall out from her last meltdown) they must be in a very small minority. These eruptions of fury whenever she's corrected or found out to be less than truthful are now so routine that most people just avoid her. The general impression is that she thinks she must be left to give bad advice and that should never be corrected - or else! I don't think many people here think her a congenial cyber companion, judging by reactions to the current fit. Then she threatens to disclose those emails if she has a fall out with the 'supporters'! It's a tired old game we've seen from her far too often and it's done deliberately to divide the group and create dissent. If she does receive unsolicited e-mails of support, that's hardly her fault. I don't think anyone has claimed it is. But it is such a well-worn tactic of hers to claim these emails come flooding into her inbox that it would be a joke if it wasn't a childish attempt to frighten or wound others. Granted, if someone has e-mailed her privately, it's obvious he/she doesn't want his/her views on the matter exposed on the group, and one would normally respect that, I think. If she has been acting maliciously, as you suggest (and I'm not in a position to say whether she has or has not) wouldn't the most effective response be to simply ignore such remarks and not rise to the bait? Puce plants the seeds of suspicion in everyone's minds and that is not possible to ignore because she knows/hopes it will nag away at all of us. A lot of us chat about things other than gardening but by email - harmless chatter about ourselves, our lives, our families etc. but Puce has worked quite hard at conveying the impression that people pass these things on to her. It does not make for a relaxed atmosphere in a group. And if one of her supporters is a man who thinks hitting women is a good idea, all I can say is they deserve each other. I have no idea who or what you are referring to, there, so cannot comment, except to say anyone advocating unmerited physical violence to anyone, regardless of gender, is barking up the wrong tree, in my view. Unless doing so humourously, as in quoting the old "Women, dogs and walnut trees, the more you beats them, the better they be's" rhyme, perhaps :-) She remarked that two men had emailed her and that one of them had said he would like to hit me. As I say, she's entirely welcome to that kind of support. I'd rather leave it in the gutter, where it belongs. -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.co.uk South Devon (remove weeds from address) 'We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.' |

Then she 'turned' against me because she realised that I wouldn't give a fig for her 'friendship' nor would I listen to her patronising and boring rubbish. I'm quite peculiar with whom I let into my life Mrs Hubbard. So please, don't you go piggy backing the ozzy loon who has endangered the life of her husband for having assaulted some woman, and PLEASE stop encouraging any other worms currently crawling out from under rocks. These are the people we never see gardening posts from but when the shit hits the fan you can be sure they'll be there. Why do you need that crap Sacha Hubbard?! Why do you need to fight and scheme and be nasty on a regular basis. Do you take some meds or something?! Surely you don't have pmt still, do you?! |

You cow! You utter, hidious uggly cow!!! Show us now where I've told Judith to do this?! Keeping them wet?? Keeping nerium outside in low winter temperatures?! Please show us where I said this. URG's reputation is well above that level and it would be nice to keep it that way. It's all in your head. It is nice here, especially when you're on holidays. |

Bravo, Puce. An excellent demonstration of your refinement and good taste. Thank you. My reputation is indeed quite amazing ) Just be quiet, you tiresome little woman. Such observation. Indeed I'm little and slim, not fat and red faced like you. You do this every time you don't get away with posting garbage that would kill off peoples' plants. Like when yesterday you told a poster to let sheep on their meadow so that their pooh would fertilise the soil, for a wild flower meadow?!?! YES?! You have some nerve to criticise others, you really do. That was a perfectly rational discussion until you flew into one of your manic states because you were proved wrong not only by your own foolishness but by Judith's neighbours. I wasn't proved wrong at all. What you didn't like is that I was right well before you could even get your red face around the question and answer for Judith. The interesting thing here is that I've shown Judith post to a few people (because her english and style of sentence was quite weird on that post) and saying 'not common to be more than below minus 20' means nothing at all. Again, sadly, nor Ray or Edward could help either of you LOL!!! You can never keep a still tongue and just *learn* something. Learn?! But you keep saying that my RHS course wasn't good enough, my diploma wasn't good enough, and now I'm designing with the Chelsea school of design, (got 97/100 for my last project HoooHooo!!!) I bet you'd have something nasty to say about them too, wouldn't you?! The fact is that you can't tolerate someone with a bit more energy than you have - learn to live with it. God help your family, it must be like living with a constipated volcano. ))) See, learn to live with it. |
