Hello everyone! Not used this part of the website before, but now it's forced on us all to find a way to keep in touch, I'll look forward to seeing names I know.
Just taken out a black kale which a) had run to seed and b) had flopped over an Oriental poppy. The flowers so pretty though, have filled a vase with them. Am sure I'll regret it in a day or so, rotting brassica smell not my favourite. Amazed how quickly things are germinating now, have peas ready to go out, potted on early march sown toms, deploying cloches over planting sites. Better get back out there before the next downpour.
Can't upload my Yak avatar at the moment, so will have to be 'faceless bod'. Have been on this site for a long time, but never used the forum. This 'old Yak' is finding it hard to learn new tricks. <biggrin> So nice to see messageboard friends on here, but don't expect me to post much as I prefer to be 'SirLurkaLot'.
However, following Monty Don pinching out his sweet peas - if you save the pinchings and dib them singly around a pot, most of them will root, hence more sweet peas for your money. <thumbsup>

I've come over as well - was Kathy on the other site. Hopefully we can get the same kind of help with our gardening questions.
