    Hi everyone!

    I have just planted this Photonia hedge yesterday to hide the ugly garages before it. I like to think I have done everything right. I had some left over chicken manure pellets which I sprinkled around them. Does anyone know if they would benefit from some miracle grow or some over food or should I just leave them to it?

    thanks! D9CB14E8-2875-4C4C-AE6C-DF2667EB90F5.jpeg

      I'd leave them to it for this year at the very least, I dont feed much once it gets established.
      Come to think of it, I dont feed anything that isn't established.:scratch::biggrin:

      They look strong plants, maybe watering could be more of a requirement this summer, if we get a good one.
