Very nice Bob...let us see the finished product. It's always great to get ideas from lots of sources. I've been looking through some Herb books trying to learn more about natural cures for what ails us. The ancients knew so much about things that we've forgotten. I wondered if it would be nice here to share what we all know about such things. I'm reading right now about the virtues of the various Chrysanthemum species...what a power house they are. They can be used for repelling insects which I did always know from when I gardened more. So what do you think? Anyone have some knowledge of herbs and flowers? | |

Candy or Robyn..... Could one of you shrink this pic to normal size. It's much to large to enjoy the way it is. My brother calls it pixelled out. |

Does anyone from the UK grow rhubarb? I have, or used to have, several plants dotted around the garden which have yielded loads but this year they all seem to have died. Does anyone else have the same problem? - Kaz |

Ohhhhh, Kaz! That rhubarb makes my mouth water! I make a great rhubarb bread (as well as making pies, sauce and cake). I'm not sure, but I think rhubarb has a life expectency and so dies out naturally after while. |

RHUBARB BREAD!!! I need that recipe Robyn, not that I've got any rhubarb to make it with! Yes, rhubarb does die off eventually but these plants were of various ages as we continually take 'cuttings'. Maybe it's the weather, who knows! - Kaz |

I Have Rhubarb in my Garden Here that I transplanted from my other place. I still have plants at the other place. I have donated some fresh Rhubarb to Meeders and Janet has taken some to the Absolut where she works. I love a good Rhubarb Pie.................. It's My favorite. And Yes it dies down toward the end of summer..and comes back in the spring |

Someone at work gave me a fig to eat from her tree and I thought,, mm nice So ive bought a tree which is the hardiest one you can get, But I was silly and didnt really read up about fig trees.. seems the roots can go bonkers and you need to put it in a barrel or breeze blocks around where you plant it. So ive bought a big whiskey barrel and planted it in there with John Innes soil based compost,, time will tell if ive done right |
