Oh Tel, thats shocking. I feel so sorry for you both. Hopefully you can find somewhere with a good long lease on it. It's no way to live. :'(

I had a good look at my Polystichum setiferum when I got back Tel and it looks the same as yours, so it could be alright. The plant was not lifted, your piece was hacked off, so mine was not even disturbed. It must be a late mover.

Polystichums are some of the last to throw out new fronds

That's a shame Tel, now you have to fuss over your "house" plants as well as the ones you'll be growing in your allotment.

I know the feeling Rob before we moved here, we had a 3 bedroom council house, we asked the council if we could downsize to a 2 bedroom house.
The council offered us a flat. >:(

You have rights how long have you been in the house? If you are a secure tenant you cannot be forced to move unless you are proven to be of nuisance to your neighbors or in breech of your agreement. Stick to your guns ;).

Tel I'm so sorry its hard when you are Private renting to find some were that will be long term :( I hope you find some were you both will be happy soon :).

We will be signing the contract for the new house and picking up the keys on the 4th May.
So the packing and moving the plants starts again, but once we are in, we can start on the garden, because there is nothing to do in the house. :D

Glad to hear you and Brenda have found another house Tel :) Its just a shame that you have the hassle of moving everything again.
