Can anyone suggest what i do with my winter bedding now that the summer bedding is about to take over as my Viola's and Pansies are still lovely and i don't really want to throw them away.

Pot them up? Give them a good soak (if they're not already), tomorrow dig them up and plop them into a pot along with some container compost, trim off any leggy bits, give them a good feed, and enjoy the show.
I chop mine back and plant in the garden.
I thought you were asking about the 13.5tog duvet
In the sticks near Peterborough
Still got ours on the bed Nut - not risking the summer-weight duvet yet
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
I think nutcutlet and Dovefromabove may be right with this weather we're having,but i must admit i like Lyn's idea,Will they carry on and prosper for a long time or will they give up about September Lyn?
my mums keep going for years, she just keeps her in their pots
Thanks everyone for your advice.I'll understand this garden thing one day.
You'll be the first person who does - we're all still learning, however long we've been doing it

I have never been very successful with reporting pansies / violas , although it goes against the grain , I treat them as annuals and ditch them , sorry to be so negative
Same here, GWRS.
