We had two beds planted with cannas last year, one of which we mulched with horse manure and the other with cow manure. The bed which has had the astonishing growth is the one with cow manure – or rocket fuel as we call it. The horse manure bed, which started with exactly the same number of plants and has had identical growing conditions has only filled 40 pots – in other words the rocket fuel is three times more powerful. This afternoon we’ve had another 15 tons of the stuff delivered – and we won’t be bothering with horse manure again.
