    Help! [​IMG]
    I have a huge container of morning glories (now dying) underplanted with cherry tomatoes. The tomato plants are dying but still full of green fruit. I bought 6 cyclamen I wanted to plant there but now can't decide what to do with the tomatoes???

    Shall I give the tomatoes another week? Will the cyclamen survive in their pots? Or shall I declare the tomatoes history and plant up the cycs today?

    Decisions... [​IMG]

    I cant see why the cyclamen plants wouldnt be ok for another week in their pots. Its no different to them sitting in the garden centre for another week had you not purchased them.

    Not sure about the tomotoes as I dont grow veg though

    Thank you guys!
    Now who is impatient... [​IMG] the tomatoes are gone (I'm following tha advice I found in a old thread and cut them to ripen on kitchen windowsill) and now I have a lovely container full of Allium bulbs and 6 lovely cyclamen on top.

    I love sunny Sundays!
