Why be sorry? we are only trying to help it is very difficult this gardening lark. The computer is good though for looking up plants. Just buy the house if foxgloves are all you are worried about. Bye the way green potatoes are cancerous for humans so be careful.
Matthew - don't let the scaremongering media whip you into submission. It's mainly common sense. There are loads more dangerous scenarios inside the house than outside
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
It was a common Agatha Christie plot for someone to put digitalis in someone's drink and then put a little bit of foxglove leaves in everyone's salads "by mistake" so most people would get just a little sick and one person would be presumed to be overly sensitive to it. I don't see how you could mistake a foxglove plant for lettuce though.
We had noisy neighbours and a small garden at our old house. We bought a large for London garden and two elderly gardening ladies on either side. The house was purely incidental. The elderly ladies have passed away now and I'm a bit deaf. I think that maybe I am now the ageing but not elderly gardening neighbour.

Did they prove that eating green potatoes whilst pregnant was the cause of Spina Bifida, or was that just a scare story.?
I remember that Lyn, it was on Woman's Hour years ago - I was particularly careful when I was pregnant.

However, green potatoes aren't good for you

House hunting isn't fun. We gave up and just bought an offplan newbuild instead. There is going to be nothing in our garden when we move in.

I was fortunate enough to be given this one, I give thanks every single day for that.
