    End of May up here (Scotland) NewBoy. If you're in a cold or exposed site anywhere I'd say best to wait until then. image

    I find this helpful http://www.gardenaction.co.uk/main/weather1-result.asp .

    Mind you, I keep a close eye on the local weather forercast and I also record the maximum and minimum temperatures in the garden each day/night and compare them with the forecast max and min - so I know how sheltered the garden is.
