Mine are only babies Lily, they were the free ones from GW but have really come on in the last couple of weeks, desperate to be repotted but just not had chance.....that's tomorrow's job
Hi, I have just purchased a sink today to bury in my new raised herb garden. This is to contain mint. should I try to seal the drain hole and if so has anyone any ideas please?
Hi Jenny, I'm not sure, I have just out grit in mine but don't know if that will be enough to stop the mint roots getting through.
Looking back on my pics I can't believe how much all 3 of my sinks have filled out, I will have to take some more pics and post tomorrow if I have time
I use my old ceramic sink as a pot wahsing and newly divided plant watering sink. It's installed on a stand I made just under the outside tap and has been a boon since I finally got around to setting it up a couple of months ago. Looks good and is practical and, because it's not attached permanently, I can take it with me when we move.............

Here it is then, at the back of the garage where I have my work area. All the plants are either seedlings, rescued plants from clearing beds or divisions - all waiting to be big enough to cope with life in the borders.

Hi orchid lady, found the thread at last
The sinks are really lovely and was really good to see the pics from month to month and how they developed
