I love learning and changing things in the garden.<br /><br />Joanne - aha, we have bindweed too! At the moment I'm relaxed about it, just pulling it up when I see it. Sometimes it bothers me a lot though. It grows a lot in one season, I know.<br /><br />Katherine - we have a mock orange but it's smaller now than when we bought it. It's not happy for some reason. I may try moving it. Witch hazel I've not tried, I'll look for it.<br /><br />Bob - yes, I can see it would make a good plant in a different place. My mistake was creating the flowerbed around it - the suckering would matter far less if it had lawn up near it. But if I'd known it did this, I'd just have got rid of it sooner - the garden was going to be planned this way, I can be a right little Napoleon over things!<br /><br />Daffodil - good idea, I'll ask around. I don't want them elsewhere myself.EBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09405771860220362327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9151537628759535347.post-44350575593800957372009-04-19T16:39:00.000-07:002009-04-19T16:39:00.000-07:00We have no snails to speak of in my dry area--too ...We have no snails to speak of in my dry area--too bad, because we have far too much flammable Broom.<br /><br />Will you be re-homing any of these or just saying "thanks" and giving them the chop?"Daffodil Planter" Charlotte Germanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04892686231029047130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9151537628759535347.post-6655988302449814842009-04-19T13:31:00.000-07:002009-04-19T13:31:00.000-07:00testtestEBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09405771860220362327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9151537628759535347.post-52498887757075661242009-04-18T09:56:00.000-07:002009-04-18T09:56:00.000-07:00My parents have a hedge made out of the Spirea tha...My parents have a hedge made out of the Spirea that you want to throw out, it actually make a thick hedge and good for a wind break if needed.

I there are some plants every year that I grow to dislike either because they do not live up to my expectations of what I thought they should look like, preform badly or out grow their spots. It gives us a chance or in my case an excuse for change in the garden :-)Lonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07060003333138052194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9151537628759535347.post-44786279926529613522009-04-17T01:28:00.000-07:002009-04-17T01:28:00.000-07:00What is it with snails and broom?

My broom is always full of them. Still, at least it's a good place to collect them up and get rid of them. (A quick squish suffices, I find.)Victoria Summerleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05055381807236106596noreply@blogger.com
