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!

My little plantlets went outside yesterday and are being well watered in today. I’ve already lost one - the dog trod on it and snapped it. The other 4 look very happy and are already about 3” tall!

I appear to have some self-seeders from last year...didn't know until I went to repot some other plants and discovered them, along with a hazel that some squirrels buried in an empty plant pot.
