I have read all the posts. I hope you have too. Look back at the initial post I made and explain how what you have all posted makes that initial post wrong. Especially the post by Mattbeer above. All you have done is confirm that you are a clique and will defend yourselves to the point of insult to anyone who disagrees. No wonder Monty and Nigel have such a hard time on here.
artjak, I agree totally. Alas, what I said is still true. This forum is dominated by a select few, as you can see from the previous comments.
pansyface, I empathise with all that I see in you as far as a few posts can do, and if you remember the vote for bob thread I actually thanked every single person individually as they posted. That's me. I asked for something and I thanked each person from my heart asap. Very few were of the clique variety though, which surprised me. I am still so very grateful for all who voted for bob.
This is what Nanny gardener posted in March 2013 on the thread 'Overwintering Cannas' : 'So now that spring is here (well it is today) and my over wintered Cannas are showing signs of life i.e. splitting the pot, can I take them out and re pot in new compost? I have never successfully managed to revive Cannas so I am hoping that this will be the year. Any tips great fully received.' Liz 13 posted recently - October 28th - thereby reviving the thread :
'I plan to move my Cannas that are in large pots into a sheltered spot in the garden, they will be under cover and I will protect the pots with bubble wrap and fleece, my question is, should I cut off the stems if so how short ?'
I replied to her query. Digger posted and Nanny gardener posted again - I believe referring to the difficulty she has getting her Cannas through the winter - as follows:
'Here we go again '
and
'Carol Klein covered overwintering of Cannas & Dahlias on GW last Friday. Very helpful advice as always'
Verdun, Matt and myself posted again with further info.
I don't see a problem with any of the posts.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

I don't think I've ever posted in the forkers thread, not sure why but its no big deal.

Digger, who are Monty and Nigel?
They are the hated but super talented and amusing presenters of GW. I luv'em!!!
Oh, the only gardening programme I watch is Beechgrove, because the presenters don't try to be celebs
PS - I love Monty & Nigel but I think the forum is great too - the 2 can go together
Then you are missing a TV treat. How to overwinter Canna's was on last week...so we are told
I think I've done what I can on this thread
