Use banana skins icky side on glossy leaves, to improve shine. The skins have antibacterial properties. Also, chopped skins put at the bottom of a pot or bottom of a hole work well smile

Anyone care to share?

I have a week by week gardening book published in the 1930s owned by my grandfather. Love it!!!!! All the tips you need are contained therein.

I usually pop some used tea-bags in the bottom when I plant pots , it helps to hold the moisture in the Summer months..

I am a fan of the 'Chelsea chop'.
