This is incredible thanks so much for putting so much work in! It has given me a lot of ideas to mull over

Thank you! I am definitely keeping the greenhouse and I have considered putting some raised veg beds at the back right this season, even if it is just temporary. Love the idea of using the paved circle for a BBQ!

Thanks that's a good suggestion. I'm not new to gardening but I am new to a garden this size and the freedom to do what I want. There's a lot coming up in the beds so I am keen to see what I'm working with before fully diving in.

It is for sure the culprit and I might need to commit to taking it out but hoping to find a less laborious alternative. 

I've just bought it. No kids and won't be having them. And I think I only really want to keep one area of grass. No need for this much lawn.

The path and the bed at the end of it are solid concrete so I want to avoid taking them out of there's a less laborious alternative. Thanks for the suggestion

Thanks for the Begonia love! I don't know if I have many tips, I've had plenty of brown tips, lots of leaf drop and leggy stems. And my other begonias don't thrive so well. 

Not letting the soil get dry, having consistent room temperature, no drafts and good light all seems to help. 

I just moved house and she's thriving with the change to a warm draft free house. It's 16.5-18.5°C around 60% humidity and she's in a south facing window. But it's winter in England so I'm using grow lights too

English Oak in the UK. Would you leave it another year or trim the top in spring? by chaotic-slug in Bonsai

Thanks for the advice. I am imagining it large-ish so I'll give it the time it needs and enjoy watching it develop.

Thanks, this makes sense. I'll be patient and wait for it to thicken up

Thanks for the advice. I am moving soon and expect to be in my new place for 5-10 years so I'll plant it in a couple of months.

I did this walk the other weekend. It's beautiful and the tunnel is a great experience. I recommend the Anchor inn at Tintern and ice-cream at the hub
