big leaves, small garden: August 2010
http://bigleavessmallgarden.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Monday, 30 August 2010. Leopard lilly: blink and you'll miss it. I'm pretty lucky to have got a shot of my leopard lilly in flower, because they only last a day before they're gone. I'd already missed a couple of the flowers before I got this pic, and the bud I had snipped off by mistake never came to anything in the kitchen, so it was a good job the camera was handy.

big leaves, small garden: May 2011
http://bigleavessmallgarden.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 17 May 2011. The palm tree transplant. One of the palms was looking very sorry for itself in its tin pot, so a transplant into the garden was required. After five years in the same pot, this turned out to be a trickier exercise than I had imagined, and it ended up being something like opening a giant can of sardines. We got there in the end though, and the pal seems all the more happy for it. Monday, 16 May 2011. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Lan Su, in Autumn.

Will's Exotic Garden: February 2009
http://theexoticgarden.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
A subtropical garden in a temperate climate that defies being in a city. A place to relax and contemplate what can be grown with climate change inevitably in mind. Friday, 27 February 2009. When the weather has been freezing, I have spent many a pleasurable day in one of my poly tunnels; at least it feels like spring in there! As for the cats – despite the higher temperatures, they still prefer to prop themselves up against the radiators in the house, or curl up in piles in my airing cupboard. For those ...

Will's Exotic Garden: March 2009
http://theexoticgarden.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
A subtropical garden in a temperate climate that defies being in a city. A place to relax and contemplate what can be grown with climate change inevitably in mind. Friday, 20 March 2009. Fun in the sun. Anyone for pots – seed trays or used hosepipe? The worst part of the grand tidy-up was removing all the pernicious brambles that had slowly covered everything in the last few years. When the weather is chilly outside, it is usually deliciously warm in the heated tunnel, particularly when the sun shines...

Tales of Growing Tropical Plants: Allotment Tuesday!!
http://togtp.blogspot.com/2013/03/allotment-tuesday.html
Tuesday, 5 March 2013. So, I've just been dropped off at the allotment! Looks like its gonna be the warmest day of the year so far though so it should be worth it. Nice steaming hot pile of manure to be whacking in our compost bins! And I'm all good to go with the rotovator and the plants I've recently bought (asparagus, rhubarb, raspberrys, blackberrys, red currants and a couple of trees) and all the onion sets, garlic and potatoes!

big leaves, small garden: July 2010

Saturday, 24 July 2010. The Goddess of the bushes: The Accident. So we must have had the Goddess of the Bushes (see previous post) all of a few days before I arrived home to a scene of devastation. There she was, toppled from her place between the bamboo and the forsythia, her face smashed in and her arms broken. It seemed like all was lost. The goddess of the bushes. And now the Buddha now has something to smile about. The cabbage palm flowereth. A few weeks on and the scent has faded, the bees have mov...

Tales of Growing Tropical Plants: Where On Earth Have You Been?
http://togtp.blogspot.com/2010/04/where-on-earth-have-you-been.html
Tuesday, 6 April 2010. Where On Earth Have You Been? Well I did mention when first starting this blog that I've never managed to keep it up for more than a few months, and I'm not on for breaking traditions! And hopefully help me not to lose so many plants over Winter as well, but let's not go there ;) lol. So, the past few weeks I've been getting busy again in the garden, full of another burst of motivation, so keep checking in for (hopefully) regular posts once again! 2 December 2010 at 05:55.
