    Must admit I did wonder about the qualiity of them but no failures as of yet. ?

    I potted the hibiscus a week ago and its just a twiggy thing at the moment but I can see buds beginning to swell image

    The only problem being sometimes they don't name the plants - the picture on the wrapper is blue so no idea really. image Same with the geraniums - pack just says 2 pink geraniums. Just hoping I can identify them when they come into flower and that I haven't acquired a thug. image

  • Its very tricky to judge, Whilst were still having some cold nights, I was out and about today and GW says its 8c in my area, but my thermomiter said it was touching 16c I thought it must be wrong but low and behold, I was out, ended up taking off my jacket (leaving me in a tshirt) & I have come back in this evening and feeling quite sore I realised I have got a sunburn.

    I know Geoff, I know.... still to sow any seeds. I did prune my lacecap Hydrangea today- ok tempting fate, but otherwise I'll demolish all the emerging bulbs/herbaceous around it if I left it much longer. BTW havent pruned it hard, so can still do some remedial pruning if needs be later on, but then the demolision..... J.
