Hi Gerry. I'm looking for the name of a tree that I have seen, but cannot seem to get the name of. I think it may be a type of crabapple. It's a small tree with a greyish bark, green/grey leaves and it is in flower at the moment (end of April/start of May) with a deep pink small flower - it reminds me of a smaller version of a cherry blossom with a deeper colour flower. I'd be grateful if you recognise this tree and have any information on it. Thanks.....Posie
what are the best plants to put on a site 16 metres by 14 meters to cover off septic tank and part of lawn? south facing,good drainage,clay soil,very little shelter at moment .
How old, approximately, is a Scots Pine before it starts taking on its mature ( and majestic) shape? I am wondering will I live long enough to enjoy it!!
Hi Gerry,

I bought & planted Daphne last February in the garden. It has berries, but no leaves. What is wrong with it? Will it get better?
I am trying to find out the type of tree that is in a site where we are building a house. I attach a photo of it and a close up of the leaf.
Could you please identify this plant. It's climbing up a sycamore tree in shade.
I've got a rough ditch boundary at 1 side of my property. It is mainly blackthorn, briars etc and looks messy and fairly bare in Winter. I have managed to level off the top and front and would like to try and cover it somehow - as it cant be removed or replanted etc . Looking for some vigorous climbers that will cover the ditch and make it look more interesting. Something evergreen with flowers..and little maintenance as I only want to have to top hedge each Summer going forward.
I have this tree,,and i don't know its name or how to look after it,some leaves look sick.. see picture. can you help? regards larry
