I'm afraid I won't be around for a few days so watch him for me and give him a slap when he needs one. On topic, tomorrow the snowdrops will go in, how many should I plant together, in groups of 3 or more? If you answer tout immed I will see it but otherwise can you email the answer please???? No Martin that does not mean you can email and give me duff advice :-) Judith |

The BBC Garden website has good advice on growing snowdrops. If we had read it earlier, we would long ago have stopped buying dry snowdrop bulbs and planting them in the lawn. The ones I sent Judith and Pam are 'in the green'. Until you mentioned it recently, we didn't know you could buy them in the green. The dry bulbs that were planted under trees last autumn have done well, all are in flower. If you get really fresh bulbs, you're fine. It's those desiccated things in little packets that have been hanging around for ages that are such a disappointment. Mind you, I'm still gasping at what some people are charging for them 'in the green'. I saw something like 20 for £12 advertised the other day! -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon Exotic plants, shrubs & perennials online |
