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'm getting increasingly worried that my plant isn't going to last until the 15th Sept.

What beautiful flowers. It looks like I may have saved my tallest sunflower which was found lying almost horizontal along the ground after the winds of the weekend. It has been tied to the fruit cage only after I had ensured half the neighbourhood were aware of the disaster befalling our household! I shall be keeping my fingers crossed for the next few weeks.

Complete sunflower failure here - but some of the roses just keep on flowering.

Mine are about 74" so I think we've had talker, and the head is just forming!
