PPP Posted June 2, 2020 Report Share Posted June 2, 2020 I've obviously aged dreadfully in lockdown as I am now showing and interest in the garden .. Sadly our gardener passed away 2 years ago and we never replaced her and relied on doing few things ourselves, as such its a bit of a mess and needs a clear out this year and a replan for next with much of the work starting in Autumn (i assume?) I'm keen to do this myself, i don't really want anyone else changing things around as a lot of the plants that Natasha put in remind us of her. Are there any good books to start out with? There sees to be millions of options so some recommendations would be great. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougy Posted June 2, 2020 Report Share Posted June 2, 2020 (edited) RHS books are very informative, if your interested and willing to pay postage i have a load of gardening books i can post. No charge for the books, just a bit towards post. Edited June 2, 2020 by Dougy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really no need, just cover some postage costs, they need moving on anyway, i have not seen them now for nearly 5 years, you will be doing me a favor. They are in the loft so i need to get them down. Let me sort out cheapest method to get them to you, pm me your add and i will try and get them posted this week while im off work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
