That Escallonia should be a good one I had one in my last garden. Mahonias and Nandinas are slow growing, as you have found, and need more space to show their eventual shape, they are not really hedging plants.Another option, if you don’t mind it being deciduous, is flowering currant, Ribes...

@Pete8 thanks for that. Yes, I had checked the MSF website and saw that there have been maintenance work on February 3 to 5. Last time I changed the battery immediately. This time, I waited and it went back to normal an hour later. I wonder if it has to do with the summertime change in March,...

The setup has an inner tray of 40 deep plugs (the larger one @GreenFingeredPete asked about does 72). I'm going to sow as few seeds as I can in each plug, so I can let them stay as long as possible. After that it'll be the usual juggling of 7s pots between different propagators!
