Hoping you may be able to help - I'm not ...Hi,<br /><br />Hoping you may be able to help - I'm not a gardener by any means, but a few months ago me and my daughter planted some sweetpeas in a pot. I've been away for a fortnight and come back to see that they are all dried out, and look dead. Is there any way to salvage the flowers? I'm guessing that deadheading means cutting off the dead parts up near the top, is that correct? Is it too late to just start again? They aren't for show or anything really, just some flowers she wanted to grow so she could take them to her mum, so any advice much appreciated :-)Local Seohttp://www.abdebpromotionslimited.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5266224907043302947.post-53804581238639085942011-07-14T22:30:45.720+01:002011-07-14T22:30:45.720+01:00How lovely!

The fungus or whatever it is, works it's way up the plant. Do you know what it is and how to remedy it?Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15471639876072617577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5266224907043302947.post-61131581559359708982011-07-11T08:42:39.826+01:002011-07-11T08:42:39.826+01:00What a lovely view you have & very pretty gard...What a lovely view you have & very pretty garden.

The flowers of these are edible and I sprinkle them on salads - very colourful, and they do say that you should eat a rainbow of food every day. Sadly I only have 2 plants this year, must have eaten too many last year so they didn't seed. I am slightly worried though having seen your hollyhocks as I planted 2 tiny ones this morning and seeing yours am now realising they are too close together and too close to the fence!Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14813706744376163204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5266224907043302947.post-13057067764816297112011-07-05T20:09:41.737+01:002011-07-05T20:09:41.737+01:00All looking beautiful! might see you at Shepton th...All looking beautiful! might see you at Shepton then!

Hollyhocks can yield some interesting dyes as can marigolds too but I think they look better in situ than in the dye pot! Lovely photos as ever. They've made me want to take a stroll around my own plot but it's too hot this morning! Maybe later!LAC EMP 2020https://www.blogger.com/profile/01999825212820503519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5266224907043302947.post-58107778171285913492011-07-04T08:02:57.531+01:002011-07-04T08:02:57.531+01:00loverly, will have a cuppa next time im over there...loverly, will have a cuppa next time im over there in your part of the world !Mrs Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03109885833512528798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5266224907043302947.post-64663292870666600932011-07-03T21:34:43.476+01:002011-07-03T21:34:43.476+01:00Your garden is looking really great.
