Welcome from another new member. I'm already gleaning information just from lurking and seeing what goes on.

I hope to get involved a bit more as my allotment takes shape; I have a few (it is a few as well) areas of expertise but mainly I'm learning about G-Y-O.

I think we may need to do some allotment-photo sharing soon. I have been
rubbish with keeping my blog up, and I've not photo-ified it at all, which
is exactly what it needs.

I'd love to see some photos of others' allotments (and obviously I'll offer
mine up, however I only took the plot on over the Easter Weekend so it is
far far far from the finished article!

It may be just the encouragement I need; before the camera can come out the
hoe has to make a trip to the 'lotty.

You will get more out of this group if you ditch gardenbanter and come to
this group direct using a newsreader.
Ask about this and there are many people who will help you with the
newsreader. This suggestion is strongly advised.

Welcome anyway.

This makes me wonder if it's possible to get the urg Ring going again.
I'm not remotely techie so don't know what's involved but it would be good
if it could be done, imo.

Good idea; people are interested in our garden here on the Isle of Wight

Keep us informed

As a general principle, the best time of year to move any shrub is when it's dormant. Either after leaf drop in autumn, or before it comes back into growth in spring.

If you have to move it at a different time of year, then dig up as big a root ball as possible, and get it into the new hole immediately.

Maybe you should start taking photos of your work in progress.

It seems to continue to exist already at:

Although it doesn't work :(

Urgling from the asylum formerly known as the
dry end of Swansea Bay.

I'd leave it to the autumn, most azaleas are now in flower followed by a growing period where next year's blooms are formed. As has been suggested, after the summer but before the first frosts. They like an acid soil. They are shallow rooted so don't let them get short of water when it's really hot, (if it ever is this year).
Our garden is full of azaleas.

Long defunct. Well over a decade ago the urgring was designed by and
hosted on the web pages of a poster who was also its webmaster;
considerable work for him.

He left urg years ago, and no longer hosts/supports the urgring (why
should he).

Hi, Hope you can help with some queries in the next few months,

It would be helpful if you sed a proper ISP and subscibed directly to
uk.rec.gardening rather than use a stupid thing like gardenbanter.
