Dear Maria,
(dare I mail this?)
Well, I see that you say in your earlier message that you are not very
experienced. That puts you in my class or I should not dare to advise you.
However, to kick off the tons of really expert advice which is at present
probably being tapped out to you all over the "mediterranean" world, I
should start out with 5 packets of Nasturteum seeds, kindest plants in the
world to rip out when the real stuff gets going whatever it is. Good luck.
By the way, our weather in this part of Greece is as filthy as yours at
present.
Best wishes
