First Spuds In!

How they looked prior to planting 10cm deep into the top end of veg bed 01. The original 6 'Epicure' (Unfortunately they had sold out when I went back to buy more) and 2 'Laura' (Organic baby 'news' reduced for quick sale at my local Tescos) Ideal to fill out the gaps!

Nice and snug! I'll be sure to mulch them with garden compost when they begin to show through.

Back at home. How the three white hibiscus seedlings looked yesterday prior to potting up. Better still - two of the purples are now showing!
