I talk to them you know, can’t you tell? Mostly it’s nice stuff like “Do what I want you to, else you’ll end up in the recycle bin down the road…”

To be fair, they all look after themselves – provided the irrigation systems are working properly, which they haven’t been while we were in Britland. (Still a work in progress for Dave tomorrow).

Someone said “just water them and they’ll grow back.” Well knock me down, 90% of those affected have.

Alan Titchmarch, eat your petunias…
