The tale of a garden bully
Article Abstract:
Mildew can be an extremely persistent problem in the garden. It can sometimes be prevented by spraying regularly at two-week intervals, but this will not necessarily be effective. Once it has taken hold, it can be very difficult to eliminate, especially on a large plant such as acanthus. Fungicides can be used, but mildews constantly evolve new strains, making it necessary to try new fungicides regularly. It may be better simply to completely remove the affected plant.

Vision of true progress
Article Abstract:
Gardening is a task which is never fully completed, and gardeners must therefore learn to focus on one part of their garden at a time. Planting new trees and shrubs can be very exciting, and it easy to allow this to overshadow routine tasks. Plants which are worth considering include Magnolia wilsonii, which has pure white petals and a rich scent and can grow to around 25ft, and Sutherland Gold, a gold-leaved elder which has elegant foliage and large flower heads.
