Today I moved the majority of my plants from 5.5 cm pots into 1 litre pots where they are supposed to stay till planting out. Will start bringing them into the greenhouse for a daytime. Hopefully from midApril they can stay there overnight. Going to be a very cold night here too today.

Yes it is parasitic on mainly hazel and alder but can be on the roots of other trees. The flowering part that @Adam l photographed is the only part of the plant seen above ground and comes up in April/May so @Adam l was very lucky to see it but then so many plants are flowering earlier than usual.

The compost we had bought and sowed seeds.......RUBBISH! The dwarf french beans rotted out, the maize started and then rotted out and on goes the sad story. Even repotting some house plants had to be redone because the compost went mouldy in a day. What is wrong with compost these days?
