            Aloha,

            I'd done my two hours gardening this morning by 7.30 a.m. and am having a nice cuppa. :coffee:

            We should be going garden visiting today (NGS). :blue thumb:

            Keep well and have a great day. :biggrin:

            Aloha!

                    @Flumpy it's not a garden centre. We're visiting Kirtling Tower, an open garden day. They only open twice a year. Normally their daffs are fantastic but I think they may have gone over by now. :noidea:

                        Is it too early to plant my Bacopas out ? The garden centre still had them indoors :)

                        Not too sure @Flumpy. I leave mine out all winter so they are truly hardened off. I just leave them in situ and put the pots/ baskets in a sheltered spot in the garden. In February I cut them right back to new growth, they also self seed in the pots as well. I have also dried the flower heads in autumn and then come February I shake them over pots of fresh compost and they soon germinate. My sister gave me some about 6 years ago and I have never needed to buy any since. I also use it in the borders as ground cover too.:)

                        If they have been kept indoors then I would say that it's best to harden them of as they would need to adjust to outside temps. :blue thumb:
