Shell on Earth 🐚🌵

An afternoon well spent. I decided to adorn our Indian Cart with some summery planters. I’ve topped the pots with our crushed shells, which will help retain moisture during the Summer months, they look prettier than soil and will help to deter slugs too.

@GardenBrocante @GardenBrocantee Urgh!! Drives me mad that stuff! Have reported them too in the hope that it helps x

I can’t understand what X is asking me to do? I’ve reported the imposter account many times. What else can I do? Upset from Shiplake 😢 Here’s some of my seed sown, summer flowers No doubt @GardenBrocantee will be copying this later today

@EllaBeard11 @darrenlakin2 That’s one downside of terracotta, being porous and breathable. I find that adding vermiculite to the compost can help to retain moisture

@darrenlakin2 @ShellEarth These are lovely; I found they dried out incredibly quickly.

Evening all. Aged terracotta seed pans arrived today from @ShellEarth

@jen_doig Looks great! Thanks for sharing ☺️

@darrenlakin2 How upsetting. I get this occasionally. I’ve learnt to just delete and block. life’s too short. Sending you a hug 🤍

Just had to sadly block someone for the first time after aggressive & insulting comments from someone who doesn't even know me....makes me wonder why & am I doing things wrong & should I stop posting 🤔

@darrenlakin2 lovely Darren x

Greenhouse view...

@Saralimback woah!

@MazEHarvey @GardenerFliss Excellent!! 🙌🏽

@GardenerFliss Shell on Earth crushed whelk shells, mine are positively holeless! 💪🏻@ShellEarth

I can report that using copper tape on your hosta pots does not work! Every one of mine has been munched, any more ideas? Someone recommended garlic spray, any feedback on that one ?

@SophieKBoxall Yes! Lost one in a pot and one in a border. Only have one left 🥴

Anyone else on #GardeningTwitter been hit with agapanthus loss after the winter we had? This 16” pot is one of 4 (out of 7) which have barely survived 😢 #gardening

Just posted a photo instagram.com/p/Cp9mpoLo1yN/…

@GaryUsher_ Yes

If you had bad service (really bad) one time but you previously had 9 good experiences would you go back ?

I’ve written a blog. Some behind the scenes musings from our smallholding in West Wales. wix.to/B5PdScw?ref=2_….

@autisticgardner Calathea Triostar? I might be wrong

Mandy's mother has some impressive pot plants.

this beautiful natural resource. After many months of research and development and finally coming up with a name - Shell on Earth was born. We’re proud to be stocked at over 150 gift shops, plant shops and garden centres nationwide including Kew Gardens and National Trust. 3/3

Currently in its third generation, we now specialise in processing whelks. In 2019 we launched Shell on Earth as a way of recycling the shells that are a by-product of our processing. We’re unable to put them back into the sea so we had to find a creative way of utilising 2/3

A snapshot of the process at our seafood processing business here is West Wales. Established in the 70’s by my husband’s grandfather, our company has processed all manner of shellfish over the years from lobster and crabs to scallops and whelks. 1/3

For those of us in the UK!
