Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwnnn nnnnnnnnnnnnn!Originally posted by Wilmslow View PostWell, all been quiet for a while, other than the usual scuttling around from Mrs neighbour when she comes out to the driveway to find me already there washing my car, or something like that.
Noticed a load of huge bamboo plants in the plastic pots they come with over the last couple of days, even taller than the 5 foot tall red cedar hedge that is starting to take shape nicely.
These things are around 4-5 metres tall, and right by the red cedar hedge that is starting to take good shape, and needing all the sun it can get.
Not planted, just plonked at the side of the fence (the red cedar hedge is by the fence on my side).
When breezy the plants fall over, so she comes scuttling outside to pick them up again before darting back inside.
About to see how effective super strong weedkiller really is

Wilmsy, I am so glad you were not born in Asia because they'd take those bamboo canes and use them to torture you.Originally posted by Wilmslow View PostThey are bamboo canes so rather light, and not even in decent sized proper pots, just the plastic ones they came in. It is really bonkers!
HTH

Wrong - already blown over twice!Originally posted by shaunbhoy View PostOn top of that, a 4-5m high palm would have to be in a pot so large that it would not just "blow over" without Hurricane Irene making a flying visit.
Sorry, you will need to try a bit harder.
Fail!!

So your red cedar hedge that needs all the sun it can get (since when did hedges need all the sun they can get anyway?) is your side of the fence, and these triffid palms are the other side of the fence?Originally posted by Wilmslow View PostThese things are around 4-5 metres tall, and right by the red cedar hedge that is starting to take good shape, and needing all the sun it can get.

WTF is the problem then? Surely the fence already obscures the sunlight from this quaint hedge of yours, so how much worse can a few palms really make it?

Poor plants

Try Domestos. Make sure you "water" them when it is dark and raining so that you are not seen and it helps to get the bleach straight to the roots
