Just a suggestion to those who like to keep their gardens tidy whatever the weather, that even though the woody tops of herbacious plants will continue to look messy they are perfoming a very usefull function for the plant by offering protection and they will continue for a while yet to offer seed as a food source to wild birds. I never clear my garden completely until March.
During January I will be at work on my applications for shows during 2010, so I hope to begin listing show dates from then.
Very Best Wishes to all my clients and gardening contacts. May 2010 be an easier and more uplifting gardening year]]> General http://www.alisonsykes.com/blog/index.php?itemid=16 Wed, 9 Dec 2009 12:47:39 +0100 http://www.alisonsykes.com/blog/index.php?itemid=15 For general planting in the ground it is better by far not to water at all unless plants are showing signs of distress. I also recommend that the baked on crust of the soil surface should not be broken. This means that any moisture below ground continues to be conserved. This is a heavy penance I know to those of a tidy disposition, since weeds have a knack of growing still, but better by far for the general health of your garden.

Finally, by popular demand, I will be offering Alliums and other early bulbs in pots from May 2010
