I am a terrible "plant mom".

Stacey @xstitcher (38999) • Petaluma, California 3 Oct

The plants on the patio needed watering badly. Way to much wilting and brown leaves out there. I don't even know if we'll have a first frost the way this crazy weather is, but I'll keep watering the plants until we...

Fleur @Fleura (34927) • United Kingdom 23 Jun

Are you the kind of person who steps up when something needs doing? I’m trying to be one of those people. In the past I often wanted to be, and thought of doing something, but then somehow didn’t get around to it. If I saw...

I thought I had lost the knack

Fleur @Fleura (34927) • United Kingdom 20 Oct 23

Fleur @Fleura (34927) • United Kingdom 17 May 23

…is that it isn’t easy to tell if you have the right plant! Last autumn I saw some ornamental grasses for sale in one of the supermarkets, Lidl or Aldi, I can’t remember which. The prices seemed good so I bought a selection of...
