Thread Name: How is your garden this year?
Subject: RE: How is your garden this year?
Grab - my buddlea is now 12 feet tall and heading for outer space!! It's also white, which surprises a few people....

The rest of the garden is now about an inch deep in ashes as the garden next door with the 20 foot privet tree has just been raized and burned. Came home to a house full of smoke and ashes because I'd left the bathroom and back bedroom windows open to try to get rid of the smell of paint.

I've lost several roses, due to the SO not finishing painting the house (ever seen a rose growing in a carrier bag?) and we haven't been able to put the boxes down yet due to the scaffold tower pieces in the way.

Otherwise, all the food crops have died and all the shrubs are taking over....
