As a total newbie, doing ok so far in first Spring/Summer but I just needed to get one thing out of my system as a result of some mixed container experimentation.....
When the end of the world comes we will be left with only cockroaches.....and bloody upright Lobelia!!!! Sorry couldn't find a suitable thread!!!!!

Cheers folks, I've calmed down now and freed the dwarf(ed) dahlia, and others. Good learning curve!!!
And lysimachia.

thanks for making me laugh KJ
Believe it or not but i killed a lobelia, i put it in semi shade, in a moist ruch soil, and it died.. I guess they don't like clay. I think last year (1st in garden) i killed 4 plants, the lobellia, a delphinium (eaten by slugs), Blue Verbascum (eaten by slugs), a tree heather (not sure what killed it to be honest just went brown, cheif suspect was the cold easterly winds).
I can't complain too much 4 from dozens and dozens of plants can't be too bad.
Isn't it cockroaches and Cher?
Believe it or not I managed to kill Russian Vine once...if I knew how, I could have marketed it! Could have made a fortune
