Try Cissus Striata Cirrhosa.
It is fern leafed, pale cream fragrant flowers. Grow it on a frame, in a square container with large pebbles over the earth/compost.
To help humidity and to stop the little person digging in it. Ditto Jasminum Officinalis.

Cheese plants - nice huge leaves and soft although they can get huge but can be divided quite easily.

Only seed from the species of a plant will come true and even then, provided it has not got crossed with another in the same family. Named varieties will not come true from seed; to increase them you would need to take cuttings. However, collecting and sowing the seed could prove interesting because dahlias are more than ready to produce new varieties (although whether the results would be any good is another matter)

From my experience a few years ago with an escaped pet rabbit, neither the RSPCA or police wanted to know. I finally persuaded a local Animal Rescue Centre to come and collect it

Hang up some garlic cloves where the beast is coming in.....honest this really works rabbits hate the aromatic smell of garlic........you will find that this bunny soon gets the message and will leave your vegetable garden well alone....Best Wishes.

I hope your neighbours will deal with their weeds - or you will get them!!!! I always plant too many seeds, too, and end up giving loads of plants away. Nobody minds, they welcome them - in fact, an idea has struck me! Why not give some to your neighbours - they'd have to clear a space to plant them, wouldn't they! lol.

Hope you had a great holiday and are looking forward to doing some more gardening now. The weeds seem to have had a hay day while you've been away, but I'm glad your veges and flowers are doing well.

Looks great - did you make those raised beds yourself? We've been doing some on our allotment and already they are falling apart - DIY was never a strength of mine, right enough.

There's nothing nicer than fresh stuff from the garden that you grow yourself. I love your fence, and the raised beds are a good idea. It looks great, and the things you grow will taste great aswell.

How about Parlour Palms? Nice tropical foliage but feathery so you can see beyond them and keep an eye on that small person.
