Where are my plants?
Question from
I have just joined Shoot and am in the process of uploading my plants but so many of them are not available on the site. How can this be rectified - does anyone know? Other aspects of the site are very good - I am enjoying getting to grips with it and feel it will be very useful in the winter months when I cannot get out in the garden.

Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust waterbutt survey
Comment from
Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust is conducting a water butt survey as part of our “work your butt” campaign and Festival of gardening 1-31st March.
How well do you work your butt? Your water butt that is… A survey 3 years ago found that nearly two thirds of gardeners said they had a water butt but only one in 10 make good use of them.
WWT is calling on gardeners to help us get a clearer picture of the situation today, particularly in these increasingly environmentally and economically aware times.
So please visit http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/wwtsurvey to take survey and answer a few short questions. It’ll take you less than 5 minutes and as a thank you for your help you’ll go into a draw to win a year’s WWT membership.

What a wasted week!!
Comment from
Last Sunday I spent 5 hours in the garden/greenhouse. Just what the Doctor ordered. I was looking forward to spending more time outdoors on Monday. No such luck, the wind was so strong it was dangerous to be out there. Tuesday wasn't any better, Wednesday I go to see a friend. Thursday and Friday I was feeling unwell although last night I was feeling much better so planning to garden today. Huh!! have had heavy rain all morning. I suppose there is always housework (I need a miserable smiley)
Sooooo! I am going to do my ironing and this evening I am going to see my 2 youngest Granddaughters (sisters) receive their Certificates for their Ballroom Dancing exams. How has your week been?

What about the weather?
Comment from
Hasn't it been beautiful today? It's the first time this year that I've really wanted to get out there into the garden.
I've had a good tidy round and checked on the plants outside and also in the greenhouse. Some are starting to spring to life now.
Saying that, it was thick with frost this morning. I wonder what tomorrow will bring?
So, have you been taking advantage of the lovely day?
Jo.
