Determined to get to grips with your garden this year - prune those shrubs - have colour all year round - grow enough flowers so you have enough to cut and bring inside, maybe grow a few veg?


Sign up for a beginners gardening course held in a lovely East Dulwich garden. Saturday morning sessions beginning in March. Groups are small - max of 6 - giving you the opportunity to learn in an informal, relaxed setting. Learn how to make the best of the plants you have and which ones to buy to give you long lasting colour and form; how to look after and feed your soil; how to make your own compost; what to grow to encourage wildlife into your garden; which vegetables are easiest to grow and give the tastiest crop.


Cost includes all materials, free seeds, small plants, cuttings and tea and homemade cake. It's a great way to meet other local gardeners. Monthly starting March through to September, taking you right through your first growing season. Call Jane on 07952 898025 or email [email protected] for more info.

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you, Strawbs. The beginners' session runs from 10.30-12.30 on Saturdays. I'll be running one in the afternoon 2-4 for people who already know a bit about gardening and want to extend their knowledge. Jane

I can highly recommend Jane's course. I enrolled on the beginner's course last year and it was great, Jane is really knowledgeable and gave us lots of useful information,hints and tips without being too prescriptive about what we should do in our gardens.

It's given me the confidence to try out new planting ideas.

In addition, she provides delicious home made cakes. Win win!

      Council "weed" removal

      By kiera · Posted

      I agree that I enjoy seeing the variety of wild flowers growing naturally in the streets and would much prefer that they were not destroyed. (The South London Botanical Institute actually conduct wildflower identification walks on street wild flowers.) However, as the council consider themselves to be responsible for removing these plants, it's better that they now dig them out rather than spraying them with toxic herbicide, as they used to do - a step in the right direction.

      It's interesting how local businesses and the people that own / work in them are not considered part of the "community". The dictionary says "a group of people living in the same place" as the principal definition. Why are we forced to accept a secondary definition where those who don't live in social housing, the vast majority of people in East Dulwich, are told to shut up?

      They often grow in the angle between wall and pavement which could cause damage to the foundation of the wall and leave the council open to being sued.
