Why is my monstera plant drooping?: A drooping monstera plant may be due to cold drafts, dry soil, or insufficient humidity. Ensure proper temperature, water thoroughly, and mist regularly.
How should I prepare my garden for winter?: To prepare your garden for winter, trim evergreen hedges, cut back herbaceous perennials, and remove dead material. Mulch around plants to protect them and suppress weeds.
When is the best time to sow sweet pea seeds?: Sweet peas can be sown in November by planting three seeds in 9cm pots filled with compost, keeping them in a greenhouse or sunny spot until spring.
What are the ideal conditions for growing Abelia Grandiflora?: Abelia Grandiflora is a fragrant evergreen shrub blooming with pale pink flowers until late autumn. It thrives in sunny, sheltered locations with well-draining soil.
What steps can I take to protect my roses from winter damage?: Tall roses should have leggy stems shortened to protect them from windrock (damage caused by swaying in strong winds). Cut above an outward bud and dispose of diseased foliage properly.
