I planted a bamboo tree about 7 years ago and it is taking over a portion of my garden. is their anyway to get to the roots so I can stop it form spreading any further!
Our potted Phormium is looking sad and brown, possibly as a result of a very hard winter. I'm sure its pot is large enough. Should I cut it right down, or prune the brown leaves (most of them are brown), or do you think it might have died?
Can I still transplant my geraniums or have I left it too late? They are sprouting vigorously at present.
How soon after spraying with Round Up could dogs be let out in the garden?
I have a large and very beautiful euphorbia that is flowering right now. unfortunately it is encroaching on my coronet apple tree and it has green fly and i need to spray it so i've concluded i need to move it. when can i do this? i've heard they are difficult to move and i would be loath to lose it as its a really gorgeous specimen.

I have sown ERIGERON karvinskianus profusion seeds about three weeks ago in two pots and placed them in a dark cupboard in the kitchen. They have just germinated. What do I do next?
I want to get rid of an old phformium -just plain green one- its too big and it would be impossible to cut it down. I usually trim them with a sharp knife but for this one I would spend a week to get rid of it. I want to replant the spot with something else and this one survived the frost so I need something else please.
when and how do I plant seeds saved from the above.
Planted 3 phyllostachys aurea shrubs last September and noticed now that the leafs have yellow/brown tips and very tiny black vertical lines on them. Is this the symptom of something they need or disease? Added a picture taken today.
Do you know where I can buy the sleeping beauty or pink shamrock.
I have recently lifted a large amount of turf from my garden to create a new flowerbed. I have stacked the turf in a corner of the garden not seen from the house. How do I get this to break down quicker to produce the "loam" I often read about?
