    I bought my first Cyclamen this past month.  image  I chose white to compliment the wicker on the front porch and the two potted planters flanking the front door.  What recommendations do you folks have for a splash of color to poke down beside the Asparagus Fern and variegated Liriope?  image

    Hi aym280 yeah all free I have been with the site for a while now no bad things to report really Nice guy Richard see him on QVC I know he is wanting to make you buy items on the TV show but you can only judge from my time seeing him on there and the web site for me its all OK

    Same here good luck with your picks if you get one of them I went for Penstemon ‘Pentastic’ , Rhoeas poppy, Dahlia XXL tried to pick something I can keep into another year rather than the summer selections, fingers crossed

    Good job I replied Some nice options though you get to report back as well for them so they can see how they do across the country in the different conditions the UK gets.

    about three years now but the advice here is better on GW and RHS website for more in depth help put they are good for quick questions.  But will add he does have his own products and has them to sell put they are not forced on you to get if that makes sense

    I've ordered a Lady Banks thornless yellow rose to train to grow up and fill out a dying off slim, small tree.  Should support it nicely.  I had one when I lived on the Gulf Coast and it did beautifully trained on a 45º leaning pear tree that produced few pears.   image

    Also ordered 3 American Beautyberry to plant in front of my 3 downspouts drains in the big garden.  Don't like looking st those gutter drains. These can get 9' tall, so they should cover nicely.  image
