I recieved my GW Offer 30cm Geranium plant plugs today.
Am I able to put them straight in the ground now or should I be putting them in a pot ? Bearing in mind holidays and I'm wondering whether they will be better off in ground in case I can't get anyone to water pots for me for two weeks. I go away in a months time.
What do you all do with them ? Thank you as always.

Mine arrived yesterday. I have potted them on into a larger pot because they are still quite small. My garden is now too dry to put things in. I'll wait until autumn to put them in the ground.
I suppose you could put them in the shade in a tray which has a wet towel in the bottom. I've done that before and it worked. Would someone look after them in their home for you?
At 12inches tall I would think they could go straight out.
They don't sound tiny, I would plant them in the ground and water really well when planting and then water regularly through the rest of summer
Mine arrived last week - potted into 9cm pots (mine were jumbo plugs...not sure what the 30cm refers to). I'll let them grow on til autumn and plant out then. The damp towel idea sounds a great one
Final height I would think. I'd pot on too.
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
