Hmm , trouble is all my plants have been outside for ages now. But , I do cover them with Fleece in the evening . I think I will wait . Thanks very much

 

Mine still in the greenhouse and I can see them staying the next 3 weeks

 

I have 4 baskets planted up, sitting on top of large pots in the greenhouse, I will soon be putting them outside during the day,hopefully will soon be able to put them up,

 

Problem... I haven't got a Greenhouse .. I could cry with self pity

 

Finished up my 7th hanging basket yesterday, all outside sunning themselves .
Heard some noise early this morning, my neighbour was cleaning my windows for me, in repayment as 2 of the baskets are for her, more than happy with that.

 

never do any hanging pots, or any pots until after mothers day. This year will be challenging due to the NO impatiences.

 

I've had a pansy hanging basket out all winter hanging from the apple tree.

 

Pamsdish , do you bring them in at night ? I got a plastic green house ( say's she .. its more like a large carrier bag !n). I thought I would plant them up this weekend and gradually leave them out

 

I have actually left them out tonight, fleeced them over, except the 2 in my arch, sorry to say I have done too much today and I am sitting on the sofa with my wheat bag burning my back, just couldn`t lift them in.
If your mini greenhouse is up and running ,so to speak, I would make a start, if you can slip them inside the greenhouse at night, that would be perfect, until the nights start warming up, it`s the wind chill that does so much damage ,if you can get them out of that. ideal.

 

Thanks very much and I hope the back gets better soon

 

No chance arthritic, just try to manage it.

 

Back from my holiday, grass is nuts high, should get someone to cut it while we are away.
Anyway, can now find color for my hanging baskets and pots. One of many missions this week.
Still off work until Monday.
