Police hunt for vicious bank robbers TWO robbers wearing balaclavas carried out a terrifying raid on the NatWest Bank in High Street, Tarporley, last month. They attacked two members of staff and stole cash from the tills. Police found what they believe to be the getaway car, burnt out in a field just out of town. Cheshire Police spokeswoman Jacqui Hanson said: Police believe the offenders may have left via fields at the rear of the bank and are asking anyone who may have seen anything of relevance to contact them. A report was received of a car on fire in a field near to the Tarporley Roundabout at the junction of the A51 and A49. Police are looking at the possibility this vehicle may have been used by the offenders at some point and are keen to speak to anyone who may have seen a car driven onto or parked on the field at any point. Police are asking for information about the robbery which took place on Wednesday 8th June. Call Chester CID on 0845 458 0000 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111. Man acting suspiciously POLICE are asking for sightings in Tarvin for a man who was described as acting 8712 Tarporley Talk 1/4 page mono:L suspiciously peering in houses. He was described as late 40s medium build with dark hair. He was sighted on 10th June in Hockenhull Avenue and made off when he realised he had been seen by residents.

Many of us buy plants in spring because it is the traditional time to start gardening but the plants we buy are mostly spring flowering and that can leave your borders feeling a bit let down in mid-summer so now is a good time to visit your local garden centre and buy some plants for summer colour.
Consider some of the following perennials which will flower year after year. Campanula lactiflora is a tall plant with stems of bell shaped flowers in pink, white or blue. Plant it at the back of a border in sun or light shade. The Shasta daisy, Leucanthemum x superbum Snowcap, has white daisy flowers and also likes a sunny position. I love the sword shaped leaves of Crocosmia so try taller varieties with their clusters of red, yellow or orange flowers. They like a sunny place and do best in moist soil that does not dry out. In dry years flowering can be disappointing but when happy, some tall varieties like Lucifer, will reach 1 metre in height.
Penstemons are also good for flowering from summer into autumn with tubular bell flowers in a wide range of colours. Last winter my 2 plants were killed by the prolonged cold spell but they had survived 5 years. Its easy to take cuttings from them. Cut off new green shoots (not woody stems) about 10 cm long and remove the lower leaves. Place in a glass of water and you may find that some will produce roots after a few weeks if you change the water regularly. Pot up into compost when there are lots of roots. In July cut back flowering shrubs such as lilac, weigela and philadelphus, just after they finish flowering, if you want to reduce them in size. Cut off dead flowers from roses, penstemons, delphiniums, centaurea, nepeta and lupins and you may well get a second flush of flowers in late summer always a bonus! Dead heading annuals in pots will keep them flowering and do remember to keep pots well watered in dry weather. Sow salad seeds of radishes, rocket, lambs lettuce and lettuce for autumn cropping.
