Conservatory vine
Some types of vine produce small grapes and some types produce big grapes. LOL almost as dry as the end result!!! What do mean LOL? It was a serious answer. Sorry - I thought you were being 'dry'. My mistake! Andrew |

The message
from Sacha contains these words: The French advocate a dead donkey. (It supplies slow-release phosphates.) I thought that was for a fig tree? May hold good for that too - their needs seem similar to me, and too much nitrogen hooters-up both. -- Rusty Open the creaking gate to make a horrid.squeak, then lower the foobar. http://www.users.zetnet.co.uk/hi-fi/ |

Phew - thanks all for your responses. I will definitely go for it.
Pete "Jaques d'Alltrades" wrote in message ... The message from "Pete Griffiths" contains these words: We currently have a new conservatory under construction, and have been given a vine (no idea what variety!). There are no planting holes in the floor, but I have heard that a useful alternative is to plant the vine outside against the wall, and train it through a hole into the conservatory. The hole would be large enough to accept the girth of the vine when matured, and would be packed with foam or a similar material in the meantine. Is this a sensible approach? (One of my concerns is mice!) Vines should always be planted outside a conservatory, and it is better too, to plant them outside a greenhouse. Mouse access could be a problem. Some perforated zinc pieces cut so they overlap and get pushed out as the stem thickens might be an answer. -- Rusty Open the creaking gate to make a horrid.squeak, then lower the foobar. http://www.users.zetnet.co.uk/hi-fi/ |
