My Aquilegia seedlings look good, but what do I do with them now? They are tiny and really delicate?

They look amazing.

 

They look alright, prick them out into cell trays.

 

@Logan They look so delicate, I am sure I would snap the stem, which is not really thicker than cotton.

These little guys survived a full week in a poly bag whilst we were on holiday, with a small amount of water.

What happens if I left them longer to thicken up?

 

Hardy fuchsia

 

You could leave them for a week or 2, they will need more room for the roots.

 

Hibiscus 'Blue Bird' :-





Clematis 'Betty Corning' and rose 'Gentle Hermione' :-

 

Yellow dahlias through a window ......hazy view; guess I need to clean my windows

 

Yes get them done Verdun ASAP

 

I have never cleaned my windows and i can still see through them alright.
Perhaps it's the lense on the camera.

Very nice though.

 

Use a spatula or small blade to loosen the compost, dib a hole in pre wetted compost, and be sure to lift the seedling only by the leaf - don`t touch the stem. They need pricking out now before they get spindly
