enfieldindependent.co.uk said that The charity aims to help the UK’s 30 million gardeners take action in their own backyard to cut greenhouse gas emissions and boost wildlife in efforts to help tackle the climate and nature crises. Gardeners are being encouraged to take planet-friendly actions such as plant trees, use rainwater to water plants, go peat-free, plant blooms for pollinators and pull up a paving slab to create more space for growing perennials.

James Wong from theguardian said that Iam the first to admit I’m a pain to travel with – at least if you are not interested in plants. I can’t tell you the number of friends and colleagues who have been forced to detour to garden centres, supermarkets, even out-of-town hardware stores all over the world so I can learn all I can from how local people garden. Writing this column while on a filming trip in North America, I am reminded of how many stateside garden practices are frequently recommended for growers in the UK, sometimes with great horticultural merit, but often, in our far cooler and ..read more

Micki J. Shelton from muskogeephoenix said that It’s time to think about fall gardening for spring blooms. Of course, tulips are a must since I have a rich 20-year history with Holland tulips. Lately though, I’ve thought about more variety and a Crayola box of colors in my front and back gardens. The new fall planting catalogs show a variety of spring blooms to enhance your garden. The K.van Bourgondien magazine took inspiration from wine labels to name their choices, including Cabernet, Chantilly, Moscato, Pinot Grigio, Pinot Noir, Riesling, Sangria and Zinfandel. The flower names mimic the c ..read more

Sydney Eddison from newtownbee said that In 2005, I wrote a book called Gardens to Go: Creating and Designing a Container Garden. It is chockablock with color photographs by my friend Steve Silk, who has been honored for his work with two best portfolio awards by the Garden Writers Association of America. Steve is also a passionate home gardener. During the summer we were working on that book, we both went overboard with tall canna lilies and tender shrubs, like Brugmansia from South America. Big plants like these demand big pots — 20 inches across and 18 inches deep, or half whiskey barrels ..read more

Amanda Bray Hinton from scarymommy said that My husband and I joined the ranks of eager first-time gardeners in 2020. We bought a small two-foot by eight-foot raised garden bed and set it up on a deck just outside our back door. It was our first season ever to try gardening and growing our own food, but as the old saying goes, “Being homebound in an international pandemic is indeed the mother of invention.” We learned our first set of lessons in heart-breaking fashion: we began our seeds indoors, and when they needed to be up-potted into larger cell trays, we set those trays on the ground of o ..read more
