I didn't do well with my brussel sprouts - too close together I think, but I did get a few sprouts, as well as a handful of sprouted sprouts. They are now a mass of yellow flowers which the insects are loving - including 2 types of bees this morning.
Last year I rooted 2 cuttings of elderflower which I put out in the garden to be part of my countryman's hedge. Today I have just read in a book (The Living Landscape: How to read and understand it by Patrick Whitefield that Elder is one of those plants that inhibits the growth of its neighbours - so I'll have to pull them out. I'll try one in a pot.
