You will note that some of these paving slabs are broken. Some of the 1 million visitors to this garden may walk on these broken slabs which have been laid directly on the ground with no foundation or any other preparation below them. That means as you lean forward to gaze at this trial, the slab is likely to tip and send you into the trial. There are visitors in wheelchairs who will experience difficulty and either them or their companions pushing them are likely to get hurt by these broken slabs. If it has recently rained, then the edge adjacent to the trial could dip and sent them over the side. Knowing that the RHS is short of maintenance money having only millions of pounds of profit, then perhaps a few less members would not matter so much. |

This photo was taken 3 months previously to the other one, I wonder when the RHS Wisley Garden Safety Officer returns from his holiday? You may notice that there are lines of orange baling twine between bamboo sticks in this photo whereas in February 2014 they are no longer there. Perhaps they were removed by RHS Staff, who did not notice that the path slabs were broken? |

A patchwork quilt of 36 x 36 inch (90 x 90cm) squares for tulips with 6 inch (15 cm) gap between them. A Tulip label has been inserted into each tulip square. Of course you can read the tulip label in row 8 from this position when it is only 24 feet away = 288 inches (720 cms), providing there is no obstacle in between like the tulip growth. |

In April 2014 the tulip bulbs planted in these trials beds will be in flower and the RHS wish to find out from the public what they think of them. The unfortunate aspect of this trial is that the tulips grow and hide both their number and name identity labels, SO A COMPLETE AND UTTER WASTE OF TIME, SINCE THE DESIGNER NEVER EVER BOTHERED TO LOOK AT THE FINAL RESULT AND SEE THAT THE VISITOR COULD NOT IDENTIFY EACH TULIP SQUARE. |

"Plant Records at Missouri Botanical Garden are maintained in a custom web-based SQL database. This comprehensive Living Collections Management System (LCMS) is fully integrated with the Garden’s Tropicos database and our mapping data in ESRI’s ArcGIS software. The Plant Records Department uses GIS software products by ESRI (Environmental Systems Research Institute) to manage our geographic data. A high resolution orthophotograph (4-inch resolution) is used as the base of the GIS. ESRI's ArcMap software is used to build layers on top of this orthophoto. Features in the Garden such as paths, buildings, and water features are simply "drawn" on top of the orthophoto using and ArcMap's drawing tools. Plant are mapped within MBG’s Living Collections Management System (LCMS), using tools developed in-house that utilize the Javascript API for ArcGIS, ArcGIS map services, and custom update queries. Once a plant record is retrieved in the LCMS, it can be inventoried and mapped by simply clicking or tapping on a map where the plant is located. Since the LCMS is web-based, this can be accomplished from a desktop PC, but also any internet connected device such as a smartphone or tablet. If using a GPS-enabled mobile device out in the Garden, head’s up digitizing can be facilitated using the device’s location marker on the map. Alternatively, GPS coordinates can be entered. This setup allows for SQL data in both the LCMS and the geodatabase to stay in perfect sync."

Problem 5 - Rhododendron label and Rhododendron Azalea Label on same plant |

The normal system in Britain with its gardens open to the public is to keep the ground weeded and bare between the plants. Sometimes the RHS have been rash and over some areas have applied an organic mulch. In this case the man with his hoover has not collected these fallen during the autumn deciduous leaves and put them to rot and waste their resouces in a compost bin. The liquid in the bin drains under the bin and is therefore not used by the plants who are going to receive the created compost. That Is why I shred in a chipper/shredder or rotary mowing machine and apply the cuttings immediately to the areas that require it. This means that they can be taken into the soil by the worms etc to replace the humus which is continually being lost in the soil. The humus provides the Organic Polymers to bind the quartz grains, clay domains and bacterium together to make soil as shown in the Soil Formation What is Soil Structure diagram. Unfortunately we in Britain have become so divorced from the soil, that we do not realise that to feed the plant we have to feed and keep the soil with its structure intact. How else do you feed the bacterium, worms and other organisms within the fast-food restaurant that the topsoil contains? |
"Rhododendron /ˌroʊdəˈdɛndrən/ (from Ancient Greek ῥόδον rhódon "rose" and δένδρον déndron "tree") is a genus of 1,024 species of woody plants in the heath family (Ericaceae), either evergreen or deciduous, and found mainly in Asia, although it is also widespread throughout the highlands of the Appalachian Mountains of North America. It is the national flower of Nepal as well as the state flower of West Virginia and Washington in United States, and state tree of Sikkim and Uttarakhand in India. Most species have brightly colored flowers which bloom from late winter through to early summer. Azaleas make up two subgenera of Rhododendron. They are distinguished from "true" rhododendrons by having only five anthers per flower." from Wikipedia As a bear with a very small brain, I understand that there is a difference between |
Problem 6 - 102 plants were missing their identity when in flower in 2013 aconitum kelmscott with its missing blue flowers below plant support structure |

|
The missing Aconitum is the other side of this support structure and so these blue aconitum flowers will never be seen by the visitors, but will by the staff who maintain these beds from the back. |
Problem 7 - Problem in reading Plant labels |
74
|
This plant is at your hip height and the label is less than 12 inches (30 cms) from you in the Alpine House. Can you read this plant label? No; nor can anybody else. This plant has been tended by the staff over the last 12 months and plunged in this sand when it started to flower. It will be returned to the greenhouses alongside when it has finished flowering, perhaps to come back again next year. |

What are garden 'thug' plants?
Invasive plants are those that can quickly get out of hand in the garden, even though they are not regarded as weeds and are commonly sold in garden centres. Think carefully about introducing these plants to your garden, and be prepared to carry out judicious pruning and digging or thinning out as required. Examples of such plants include: Trees and shrubs
Climbers
Bamboos, sedges, reeds and grasses
Herbaceous perennials
Crevice plants
Edible crops
Ground cover plants
Bulbous plants
Pond plants There are a number of aquatic plants that can easily get out of hand in a garden pond and are considered true weeds. Ideally these should never be introduced to the pond, though they sometimes come unwittingly with other pond plants. Continued in next column. |
Uses of Rock Garden Plants with ROCK GARDEN PLANTS IN COLOUR WHEEL GALLERY PAGES Small size plant in Flower Colours FLOWERING IN MONTH Dark Tone or Shades Garden Thug Plants continued:- Trees like the Leyland cypress and climbers such as Russian vine can grow so quickly that they are soon much too big for the garden. Trees such as poplar and sumach have a tendency to sucker, sending up shoots all over the garden and even in neighbours’ properties. Many ground cover shrubs like the snowberry or Hypericum calycinum spread via underground stems (rhizomes), sending up new plants and gradually taking over the border. Some bamboos also behave in this way, becoming a constant source of regret for the gardener. Potentially invasive herbaceous plants and grasses, such as Japanese anemones and Phalaris arundinacea, form ever-enlarging clumps that require frequent division. Others, such as golden rod or weeping sedge also spread by seed, with seedlings popping-up in unexpected places where they are not wanted. Bulbous plants such as Oxalis can produce tiny new bulbs, or offsets, which are scattered every time a clump is dug up, spreading the problem rather than controlling it.
Control Digging out unwanted plants may work for a while, but is only likely to be a temporary solution. Judicious use of weedkillers may be necessary. For herbaceous weeds, try a programme of spraying using a systemic herbicide containing glyphosate – Roundup and Tumbleweed are common brand names of such products. For woodier plants, choose a stump or brushwood killer such as ‘Bramble Killer Ultra’ or ‘Deep Root Ultra Tree Stump & Weedkiller’. Beware putting invasive plants on the domestic compost heap, as this is unlikely to reach a high enough temperature to kill off tough roots or underground stems (it is all right if they have already been killed off with weedkiller). Instead, place them in the municipal green waste, as this is composted on an industrial scale, where tough weeds should be killed off. Burning may also be appropriate, but check your local Council guidelines. |
