Not in my garden. I've got this cactus in the house, my nan then my mother had it before me. It's a cutting from my nans plant.

Looks like a maple of some sort, but I'm no expert.

Must be a new low maintenance gardening trend going on round me, everyone getting trees removed, hedges ripped out for fences, and decking and artificial grass put in.

My pal moved into a lovely new house before christmas and had a load of trees chopped down so that he had a better view of this little summer house he had built not long ago......im not the envious type but must admit i really like it so in a jealous rage thought id have a bit of a giggle with him....now he,s panicking that the Epping Forest Conservators and City of London Corporation are on his case about a missing Acer Drummondi

I detest that astroturf stuff and all that decking with the poncey little spotlights....most of the artificial grass ive seen ends up lookinglike badly laid carpet after a few years.....nah,give me a good old school matured garden with plenty of manicured hedges and charmingly graceful old trees swaying about all day long.
