I've just registered  And Garden Chat is exactly what I am looking for!! I think you've just started the perfect thread...yay I'm garden crazy, especially since our weathers been amazingly warm since April! I've done a lot of experimenting in the garden and happy to share any of my do's&dont's...but I've a few issues I don't seem to be able to amend! One many that my garden is thriving, but more greenery than flowers?? My soil is poor and I thought before I go any further I'd ask for advise Anyone in my boat? I'm UK zone 7ish I think |

Welcome applepips, what is it that you have planted, are they all late flowering plants, or just not flowering ?

Thank you Barbara There are so few flowers? Even my roses that I adore to death are hardly bothering to flower, and when they do they die off quickly! My soil is bad but I'm working on it...and thought if someone could help with what I can add that helps the flowering side of my plants....because foliage wise they are all thriving? |

I hear that comfry soaked in water and then the plants watered with the liquid helps with fruiting and flowers . Applepips.
