I think the best approach is simple - don't post unless you have something worthwhile to add. If there's a dubious response, either report it or stop posting. Threads will then disappear - one way or another.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
@war garden 572 I have spent many hours undertaking historical research for both personal and professional purposes. My current rate is £50 per hour plus expenses.
If you want somebody to do your research for you maybe you should try contacting a professional instead of trying to do it on the cheap.
This is am informal discussion forum for amateur (and a few professional!) gardeners. It is is not a formal or authorative body like the RHS.
Heaven is ... sitting in the garden with a G&T and a cat while watching the sun go down
That's a good suggestion @JennyJ. I'm sure it would be much more productive for him than trying to get us to rootle in our granny's attics looking for old copies of wartime gardening magazines and cookery books.
This thread has brought up a vague memory of Mr. Digwell in the Daily Mirror though.
JennyJ that is good idea. I already searched their data base they only have leaflet on tomatoes. I sent them an email still waiting for a response if they have other not listed in their collection.
Topbird researchers here only charge £20 or about $20 plus expenses since there are so many freelance researchers.
