Ask the gardener: Moving plants Warton's Bill Blackledge is one of the county's most popular and sought after gardeners. If it's green and needs watering, Bill can tell you about it. He has been answering BBC Radio Lancashire listeners' queries for over thirty years, which means he's been there nearly as long as the transmitter!

S knowledge is encyclopedic. After training at the under the then Ministry of Agriculture, Bill spent over twenty years at the Department of Biological and Environmental Services at Lancaster University. Now, he's a regular course tutor at Alston Hall, Longridge and Lancaster Adult College.

For three decades, Bill has travelled the county with fellow judges as a regional judge for North West in Bloom. So, whatever the problem, we like to think Bill can sort it out... at least that's the theory! Sources: http://www.bbc.co.uk/lancashire/content/articles/2008/01/08/moving_plants_feature.shtml .

I save my yucca plant which has been severely damaged by the snow this winter They are durable plants and can tolerate being dry. Over watering will show as a brown tip with a yellow halo. Under watering is indicated in shriveled stalks (not woody trunk), and solid yellow and brown leaves.

These are usually the lower leaves. If these plants are grown in direct sunlight, they will stay compact and their stalks will be able to support the weight of their foliage. The less light they get, the more the stalks and foliage will stretch to the light source.

Sometimes this stretched foliage will break off. "evergrowing.com/HousePlantTV/…"Give yucca plants bright light including direct sunlight. Yucca plants must receive several hours of direct sunlight every day.

The plant is slow growing under optimal conditions, but if it does not receive high light it may not grow at all. Provide yucca plants lower temperatures in the winter, if possible. Otherwise, yucca plants will survive in most home temperature environments.

Keep the potting mix moist by watering frequently in spring, summer and fall. In the winter, allow most of the potting mix to dry out in between waterings. Place rocks around the base of the plant to keep plant from tipping over & to add extra bottom weight.

Move your yucca outside in the summer. Because these plants require high light in the summer and tolerate high heat, they benefit from being outside. Ensure the plant gets several hours a day of direct sun and water it several times a week when the soil begins to dry out.

Reduce watering if you see any sign of rot at the base of main trunk. Yucca plants will rot if they receive too much water. Do not attempt to increase the humidity of yucca plants.

Although they may look tropical, they thrive in dry air. "ehow.com/how_2060487_care-yuc… Sources: uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=... .

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
