A Really Cool New Website ... especially useful as we bake under the sun

I came across this new website – launched by Chris Beardshaw at Chelsea Flower Show – this week and it’s brilliant!

On the home page you can read a ‘Quick Tip’ from CyberChris ... for example, did you know
‘The yellow blooms of Marigold, when placed in the glasshouse, can be used to entice aphids and whitefly off your crops and flowers.’ ?
And every time you return to the home page a different ‘Tip’ pops up ... cool

Sounding very profound, Growing for Life says it’s ‘been created out of a passion for bringing people and plants together ... the desire to get back to the roots of gardening – to share knowledge, enthusiasm and more importantly to have fun’ ... gardening, fun ... sounds like my kind of thing ...

And wow ... there’s even a game to play ... you can become CyberChris and try to keep your plants alive in a virtual gardener ... I hang my head in shame as of the six sunflowers in my virtual garden, only two survived ... I can even kill plants in a virtual world!

If you want to try the game for yourself, click here ... and good luck
