The temp fell to 4c last night night, so we were lucky to escape a frost and I too have put some bedding plants in. I usually follow the rule of not planting out until the beginning of June but the recent good weather and output tempted me.
I think I said last year that supermarkets sell cheap bedding plants far too early in Spring. Although they’re not daft, if you bed them out too early and frost kills them, you’ll buy again and pay twice. It’s always safer to wait until local garden centres start selling them because they’re the experts and their plants will be hardened off as well, unlike supermarket ones.
Erm! I gambled and got some bargains at Aldi!
