    So would I. It has been a cold, wet, windy winter and I think many bays will be feeling a bit tattered.

  • My bay lives outside on the terrace and is looking a bit tatty as it usually is at this time of year.  In the spring ... April/May I'll give the leaves a spray with a soluble seaweed fertiliser ... that'll perk it up a bit ... I do three that two or three times through the spring and summer.
