The charter for this news group and in particular the section regarding
gardening in other parts of the world

-----
 In the absence of more appropriate, geographically specific newsgroups,
discussion of gardening in Eire, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man
will also be welcome. Because there are climatic, legal, cultural and other
differences, discussion of gardening in other parts of the world is OFF
TOPIC

Lets try and keep ON TOPIC from now on or at least start any thread that is
outside the charter with  _Off Topic_ in the subject line.


The charter can be found at  http://www.usenet.org.uk/uk.rec.gardening.html

It's in the nature of gardeners to talk and share information about
gardening, even gardening in other places. And since most of the plants we
like to nurture are natives of other lands, discussion of them is not all
that off topic.

And with the way the seasons are changing, whatever your opinions on climate
change and the alleged effects thereof, what is OT today may not be OT
tomorrow. There was for instance an item on TV yesterday about proteas,
natives of Southern Africa, flowering for the first time outdoors in UK.

And if something is OT, then so what? Nobody dies. You just don't join in
the threads that don't interest you. There, another problem solved. Next
please.

Lighten up, you know it makes sense.

Since when has the word "sense" been part of a trolls vocabulary?
