I have a monster Spider plant in my kitchen. It produces 100s of little baby plants every year. Last year I cut them all off but to look at the plant again this year you would never imagine it!

Here the local council plants 100s of the plants in flowerbeds on roundabouts & other containers. In fact I saved my plant one year when they were about to change the summer planting for spring planting.

There are a couple of photos of my plant in my photos.

 

hope you dont mind but i have used your idea on our raised beds hope it works ,thanks for the tip as there are a few cats come on the allotment.

Glad to hear (read) that you had a good holiday - it's always nice to come home, though, isn't it!

You'll enjoy getting your garden back in shape. :-)

Welcome back - I hope you enjoyed your holiday! :-)

Trimming back can be done, aslong as its to a leaf bud. They will flower still, but be in a week or twos time. A good feed wouldn't harm either

Doing very well...

they are temperature dependent to some extent. warm weather speeds up the metamorphosis. some species overwinter so they can be in the chrysalis for months.

On question - Moth or butterfly?

 

Matters not if it is a moth or a butterfly they are both friends!

Hope it works for you.Have you tried nipping the tops off your peas ? and also a gent I used to work with always told me to nip off the little tendrils too,it works with my Everlasting ones....

I put a lot of mine in whiskey barrells, greenfingers.
I just put the first few out, and I have lots left if they get killed by frost.
They're so high off the ground that no slugs or snails get up there, and I stake with bamboo sticks put right down in the barrell that I pull up as the sunflowers grow.
