Chrysanthemum cuttings taken

Two of the 6 Chrysanthemum plants I bought last year seem to have died. One container had become overrun with weeds and it seems snails had eaten two of the surviving plants. I cleared the container of weeds and snails and hopefully the remaining 'mums will recover.


The two survivors in the other container are much healthier so I took 8 cuttings from each.

Front garden update



Coleus update

The coleus I sowed on 20 March are looking a bit dodgy...


I think I may have put them out in the day too early. Have moved them into the shade.

Sowed some more...
