I used an old plant saucer and put some damp paper towel into it with several se...

Re: euphorbias as promised
Brian, thank you for posting the euphorbias as promised, they do look good as larger sized plants. I do have quite a few Euphorbias, but mostly they are in smaller pots. The bigger ones I have are showing their age, perhaps if I re pot them they may look better. Perhaps I should wait until the weath...

Re: Derek Bowdery
Derek was someone who always supported events and was always cheerful and smiling. I first met him at the Judges Course in the 1980's and later remember him coming to Sheffield Branch with Karen to give a talk. He and Karen came to us before the meeting for a meal and we had a lovely time together. ...
