Do you enjoy your garden, but sometimes wish you had someone to ask?
I run Garden Guidance, a small advisory service for people who like doing their own gardening but want a knowledgeable pair of eyes alongside them.
Here's how it works: I visit your garden, get to know your plants, your soil and your problem areas, and then each month you receive a personal written guide — what to do right now, what to hold off on, and what's coming next. Not generic tips, but advice written specifically for your garden. When there's a bigger job that needs doing — a wisteria that needs proper pruning, an overgrown shrub that needs taking in hand — I can come and do it for you.
It suits people who love pottering, want to learn as they go, and would rather have one trusted person to turn to than trawl through conflicting advice online.
£35 a month, and my current clients tell me the best part is simply knowing they're doing the right thing at the right time.
I'm based in Wigan and cover the surrounding areas. If this sounds like you — or someone you know — send me a message and I'd be happy to have a chat. 🌿

If your geranium — or pelargonium, to give it its correct name — is producing lots of leafy growth but refusing to flower, you're in good company. Mine are doing exactly the same thing in my tropical greenhouse.
In my latest video I explain why this happens, what these plants actually need to bloom well, and what I'm doing about it in my own greenhouse. I also look at three species pelargoniums including Pelargonium sidoides, which has the most unusual near-black flowers.
Worth a watch if you grow these plants — or if you've ever wondered why your geranium looks healthy but just won't bloom. 🌿 Link in comments.

Not a bad view from the patio on a sunny Sunday morning.

Viburnum Kilimanjaro with an Abutilon in the background. Both planted last summer so first time blooming for me.

My first time growing Peonies. There’s only one word that springs to mind and it begins with ‘s’. Suggestions in the comments.
