I believe 'Osakazuki akame' is completely mixed with the original 'Osakazuki' in the trade, and has largely replaced it, at least in UK and...
Good advice in general. I handwater with watering cans using stored rainwater. It would get old very quickly if I had to do it every day. My...

Pretty much the same - this week is the first time I have been without rain long enough to think about "proper" watering this year. I had done...
