I planted morning glory out about a week ago, they are growing ok but the leaves have gone yellow. They are in compost but I haven't given any feed. Any suggestions please?
Hmmm, the worst affected ones are in little pots half way up the 'totem pole' so will be a bit cold at night, maybe I'll put some garden fleece around them, and give them a nice cup of coco...
Birdy - looks like one of the dark Sambucus (Elder) that Bev has. Might be 'Black Lace' which is quite a popular variety and easy to get hold of. I'm sure she'll let you know though!
Thought I'd put a pic on of my fence as I've done a bit more - it'll be finished one day
and from the other angle
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Very professional looking job FG. is it just me or does the silhoette of the planting at the right jhand end of second picture look like a woman holding the fence up?
I see what you mean John! Someone will need to hold me up soon never mind the fence! Some of that is in gardens across the other side of the footpath. Ground looks quite level but it isn't totally. Got a gate to put in next to house which I've almost finished and the 3 tall posts in first pic have to be cut at ground level and moved Did the short one today which had to be dug out and moved because it wouldn't have been tall enough to reuse if I'd cut it. It was hard work - and a lot more concrete.
I'm having a cup of tea now and some choccy bix

I think it's because the nights have been so cold - not a good year for Morning Glories
I've found that Morning Glory does like a feed, but they also like warmth.
