Plenty of excellent articles online on growing plants from cuttings. I've got a few cuttings in the greenhouse from one in the garden. The dog decided to batter over it. Im sure its only half Hardy so if it kicks the bucket over winter I've got some backup. As you say, they're so easy it seemed silly not to. 5 minutes ago, Shadow Play said: Cheers guys. Never heard of seed pods before. Just as well I never tried to eat the thing thinking it’s a cherry Might just end up sprinting to the bog once or twice then you'd probably be fine! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite versatile really. Mixu, you're a great poster and were a successful player for Dundee United which i thank you for (not so much for the questionable football manager bit a few years ago) but thats a cardinal sin! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im a traditionalist when it comes to pizza. Artichoke is about as fancy as it gets. A good old quattro stagioni with extra onions is a sensational thing. As is a proper margherita. All on a proper thin base. Nane o yer deep pan pizza peh shite. Anyway, most of my fuschia cuttings have rooted, as have my hydrangea aspera cuttings. Happy days! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Jean King Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Any moth experts out there. This chunky little chap was feeding in blazing sun on my Marigolds this morning.

You could always give it to a neighbour you don't like and tell them its an exotic melon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
