Im going to put more in this summer and see if I can add to the collection of plants I have successfully killed. <br />I even have a garden I like to call the dead garden. One day I ripped everything out that looked even slightly unhealthy and put it all in the one garden bed, it used to have trees and therefore is full of roots and I really didn't expect anything to grow in it - but hey, those plants were dying anyway so why not give them a headstart!!<br /><br />Well do you know - all those blasted plants are actually growing.....and well.<br /><br />Ill keep you posted!Pollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17237061502041133837noreply@blogger.com
