Own name what would you choose?

Obviously, being called

Who’s up for a little sunflower growing?

Categories 

Largest head
Most heads on one plant
Largest leaf (Width, at widest point, not stalk to tip )
Smallest sunflower 

Rules 

There must be photos  


There will not be a tallest category because I’m not being held responsible for you falling off ladders, through greenhouses and breaking you precious tomatoes or your neck,  while trying to measure it     .

I have three trees, Plum, Damson and Greengage. They are in desperate need of pruning to open them up and the Victoria especially is spreading too wide. According to my book, they should not be prunes over winter for fear of infection but should be pruned in the Spring/Summer when they are growing vigorously. The trouble is, if I do them then (now), I risk losing any of the few fruit they might have set. Is this just a bullet I'm going to have to bite?

Hello all,

I've made it! I have changed my username as my old one doesn't really fit with my gardening aspirations. I don't want to be cryptic though, so I'll make it clear who I am in my signature for the next few weeks at least 

.....as its getting a bit confusing hopping from one forum to tuther?

I sowed some cosmos seeds 2 days ago, put them on the windowsill, and they are coming up already!

   

Posting pics is a bit laborious isn't it? 

I’m try a chive flower & cider vinegar. 
Apparently it’s fantastic on your chips and it tastes like the vinegar from your pickled onions. No harm in giving it a try.
And it looks pretty.
