    imageThese are the Salvia Patens 'Blue Angel' that I potted on today.

    My landing window is south facing and quite wide so it's perfect to put my seeds there. I have Calendula 'Indian Prince and snow princess, Liatrice (white) Agastache golden jubilee and Arcado pink, Antirrhinum Ruby and Rose and Larkspur dark blue which has been v slow to get going.

    Thought I'd try some coir pellet pots as my Autumn sown plants did ok in them so I've sown Scabiosa Black Night and some white Achillea seeds that were kindly sent to me via the seed swap thread.

    Lastly I have a tray full of cerinthe major which have just started to wake up.

    That was a tip from the Higgledy garden website, you can fit 15 3 inch square pots inside a full size seed tray leaving no room for the slugs!

    I think he meant that the slugs can't squeeze down among the pots to hide. ?
