Andrew, I seem to recall the advice on the packet was temps need to be at least above 10 for the nematode to work. However, we must be getting that by now I should think.

Here in Dorset at the moment there is hardly a week goes by without another bit of the South coast crashing into the sea! Not because of volcanoes, just erosion and the wettest winter on record. Spring is just as wet so far!

That’s a beautiful hummingbird! The hummingbirds have nested and all the babies have flown away. Beginning of January the hummingbirds build their nest here, and by mid-February the babies are gone.

Lovely to see the blossom Kate. I drove into Scunthorpe yesterday and noticed so much wild white blossom through the woodlands. Then a whole bank of cowslips had been planted by the council...:))

I know, right? 😂
It should grow very well once I put it outside in a few weeks. Most crotons need a lot of diffused sun to grow well. Plus, indoors crotons attract so many bugs.

Thanks ladies, I will pass on your lovely feedback! They ate glowing brightly in a patient's back garden.

The painter certainly did some really sloppy work on your Croton! 🤣 But I hope it grows well for you!

You have made a really nice Easter tray, Klahanie! Very original, too! 👍

Driving past cows is a skill you need to develop quickly. Terceira is the only island with this problem. I've been to several others, and they keep their cows out of the streets.
A lot of the quakes are not felt, measuring below 2.0 on the scale. There was one recently that caused some of the rock walls lining the streets to be damaged.
I am waiting on a new member of the Iris group to flower - Neomarica. The buds are forming, but it is taking a long time.

You have some gorgeous plants and I think I would be very nervous living where you do.
Hopefully it won't ever affect you.
I too love to see the cows but it must be a nuisance if you want to get past them.

Totally agree, Blue and Yellow especially with scent is the bees knees.
