Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I thought that Nightjar's sunflowers looked like NDWDave. Which would have been cool.

They've reached the top of the lower fence panel now :-) Weeded around the base and dug over the rest of that border so they really stand out. Added a bit of mulch which I hope they like.

Sunflowers are now taller than me :) Hoping they don't stop when they start flowering.

Got back from a week's holiday to find sunflowers have grown about 1ft since I left, so pleased they didn't dry out while I was gone, tallest one now over 6 ft, will post a picture soon.

They'll probably recover, at least it's hot enough for them to dry out :)
