If the birch stays in the pot, it won’t get much bigger. I have a copper beech in a pot about this size and it has remained “dwarf” at less than 3 ft for many years. Birches take kindly to a bit of pruning too.

Lovely photo Janey. Our Jordan looks the same size as yours, but one half is fully in leaf while the other half is lagging behind … very odd.

Thank you Janey, I have to assume that you are right. But why only my comments? Its so weird..

If it’s any help, our “tickets” take the form of a programme (A4 folded to A5) listing the gardens and with a sketch map on the back showing the roads where each one is. Visitors have to show the programme at each garden they visit, or of course buy one at the gate. As Andrew says, you will need plenty of £1 coins to give change.

No Lori, I didn’t know there were such things. Do you have any photos?

It looks like my problem is gone for now Janey but only on the new entries. it came from nowhere and disappeared without me doing anything to the system. Except, it looks like in previous older posts my comments and 'likes' are still gone.
We will see how it will develop.

The Sycamore seedlngs we get here are often bronze like that.

Yes Janey, in a corner.

I don’t think that is a sycamore seedling. I get loads of them and they aren’t bronze. I think it’s an Acer as you wished Julia!

I think it's the site not working as it should Klahanie.
On photo - Rhododendron Taurus
It is odd Klahanie, there's been quite a few blips on the site recently,, not least, the amount of adverts that are showing now. I also get "This Site Can't be Reached " especially when uploading pics.

Two thoughts. If you're charging £8 to see the gardens, you will need a of change if people are paying cash (they will probably offer a tenner). Are you giving them a ticket to prove they have paid when going to the other gardens? Maybe charge £10 with one lucky ticket holder getting a total refund?
Plant prices. When we opened, we had coloured sticks in each plant pot and an explanatory chart nearby - red = £1, yellow = £2, etc

Owdboggy, thank you , it’ll be staying in the pot. I still don’t understand how I’ve ended up with a Birch lol

I'd go sycamore or field maple but not one of the pretty acers I think you mean.

So pleased you're on your way now Karen, and the blocked drain was sorted. You'll soon be planting up, how exciting!

It is! Will it be south facing in your courtyard garden?

Thank you all for your replies, always good to hear what others are doing. We’re having a meeting to discuss the reg price and who will be selling plants. They will be mostly standard annuals & perennials that gardeners have dug up or divided.
