    As far as I am aware the Wildlife and Countryside Act forbids the uprooting of wild plants without the landowner's permission, apart from a few specific very rare things which get extra protection. And the sale of bluebells and some others without a licence. Picking is not actually illegal, just rude.

    Yes I have a plant fair to go to in March with an aquatic specialist down to attend, and will be stocking the pond up with all sorts of plants, tall things and floating things.

    Sorry if I was wrong Sapindus.. I tend to forget I live in a national park where it's restricted.

    Great thing to have that plant fair for aquatics. I haven't been able to get any. The prices locally are mind boggling even for small plants.

    You garden is looking exciting though. All sorts of interesting things to discover when it starts to get wilder. Please keep us updated.

    I can rise and shine - just not at the same time!
