We have a number of different size (four sizes I think, but may be five) dinner plates accumulated during the over 60 years we have been married. The biggest ones are square (M&S), and the next size are some beautifully decorated Japanese ones given to us by the daughter of a friend who died.

seed potatoes with long shoots
You can leave them in a cool light space for a while if you're not ready to plant out yet. The shoots will green up and strengthen a bit. Plant carefully as already said.

When to Cut Back Semi-Neglected Lavender and Santolina
Yes a few years ago we visited a garden in Suffolk. They had a border with some very old Lavenders which still looked fine. They said they cut back hard in February-March each year.

I think you will find its normally grown in the ground. But not something I have grown.

Chillies 2026
I put some of those in about three weeks ago, getting their true leaves now, I do find they need a longer growing season than the smaller types, and ripening can be slow, but worth the effort.
