Anyone know of any URL pointing to a good site on how to build a CP
friendly bog garden?
I know it should be pretty straightforward, but I'd like to see what other
people have done before I build my own. Also I'd like to hear of people's
experiences growing mixed CPs in large (e.g. polystirene crates)
containers. Obviously plants growing together must have similar needs, but
I wouldn't mind some dos and don'ts...
Here in Tasmania, where the climate is pretty mild (few frosts, few days
above 30 C), it should be pretty easy to grow them outside. We do have
brushtail possums, which fulfil the same ecological niche as squirrels, but
hopefully they won't have developed too much of an apetite for CPs.
In any case, just as with squirrels, it would be pointless trying to kill
them because that would just create a vacant territory for a new possum to
move in.
Cheers
