Nfk - I think it's only on this thread that we can post photos.
(Might get a bit distracting on other threads...grin)

Posted wrong version. That is it before I removed a white streak and a distracting blurred flower. Will try again.

Can't grow them! Tried sad

Elegran Fri 22-Feb-13 22:23:03

That's better.

Neither can I. That one was in the Botanic Gardens. I bought one, planted it, looked after it. It died.

I'm adding one just for the fun of it.

Agree or disagree?

where is the browse button please - I am trying to do it on an iPad.

shysal Sat 23-Feb-13 09:07:38

Bez, on my tablet the browse button says 'choose file', underneath the usual message entry box.

Will this function be available on all threads?

Nope, just the 'Pictures' topic - so feel free to start your own threads within that topic.

P.S. That trifle looks delish!

It seems these photos aren't private though, unlike our profile pics, which can only be seen by members.

Yep please be wary what you post - we are a public forum and anyone can see all posts made without being registered.

Any tips for lengthening the life of cut daffodils? I have tried cutting stems, dunking in hot water, even filling hollow stems with water and stuffing with cotton wool. They still only last about 4 or 5 days.

glammanana Sat 23-Feb-13 09:23:33

shysal I've found the same no more than 5/6 days when they have come into bloom,the only thing I have found is to buy when in bud and enjoy the opening of the buds,I've tried allsorts to no effect.hmm

shysal Sat 23-Feb-13 09:26:57

Sorry, should have started a new discussion, will do it now and try to rotate picture. Obviously a problem with orientation.

The best answer would be to keep them in a cool room, but then you'd lose the enjoyment of them when you sat in your nice warm sitting room watching the TV!
