Hi all, hope the last few weeks were good for you. Lots of things are happening for me and some things takes too long.
The internet is amazing tool for information, as you know, think about all things that happening in many arrabs countries thanks to...Facebook, Free online information- so people can see what is real freedom.
Well, with you I want to share 3 links that I got from this tool called google alerts ( it is ever so easy take seconds and goole will inform you about the subject you like). see the links down the page.
The good things I had this week:
I sent about 20 samples of our edgings, Inc lacashire county council, a castle garden few landscapers and private customers.
some of the orders that I supplied this week: one from a collage of 15 deep raised beds that will be used in a garden with disabilities- I am so glad as it is exactly what I wanted to get with these 45cm deep beds (At really budget cost- they paid only 35.00) . I really would like to see how they will shape the beds as these are flexi beds. Fair water Fairwater.co.uk bought root barrier, Thank you rick.
Must not forget Greame Mann, yes our favorite one orderd 50m Heavy Duty lawn edging ,( at a cool price)
and a potato planter,- Many thanks Greame. And few orders from customers that bought the heavy duty edging and came back to place another orders- that is most satisfying.
These week we started a campaign to the garden centre so far only the biggest 20 were contacted- will update.
Very very frustrating is that we are trying QVC- the shopping channel, but they wanted specific carton boxes I contacted the firm that they advised 3-4 weeks ago and still no sample, only part of he prices and that is after about 20 phone calls that I had to do to ask the man to help- how annoying is that can be dealing with big firms sometimes. ( sorry to say but this is always amaze me in the UK- customer service from big firms is in genera, a disaster that involve in pain)
Ok so as I promised link one is showing that:
1. Look at this images or use to explain to customers what they need to stop rhizomes of bamboo
growingontheedge.net - View topic - How to dig in 30m of bamboo ...
Today I managed to dig in the 30 metres of rhizome barrier (65cm width) required for the running Phyllostachys sp & cv I bought there. ...
2. raised beds for fruit trees on clay
Providing root space for fruit trees
Napa Valley Register
Should I keep the apple tree pretty small or let it grow. ... You need to watch and prune to control the more vigorous ones. Otherwise the slower ones ...
3. just thought you should read that as you would not like to take a blame
http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1476-4431.2010.00577.x/abstract
In fact this is not a severe one: try to google : metal edging injury, dog or pet hazards and you can read about thousands of cases in some of these pages.
I hope it helps and many thanks for reading, please reasponse
The deep raised beds can be screwed to the recycled plastic stakes to create any shape.
