Hi everyone, i got some bare root plants recently
i was wondering, which is better? planting these direct in the ground or in a planting in a pot and then putting in the shed and planting in spring etc?
many thanks!
PROVIDING THE GROUND ISN'T FROZEN, I WOULD GO FOR PUTTING THEM IN THE GROUND EVERY TIME.
IF THE EXACT POSITION ISN'T READY YOU CAN ALWAYS "HEEL THEM IN" AND REPLANT IN THE SPRING.
what are the plants and how big are they?
I always pot mine up first, but thats because I like to see them come up, and know exactly where to look in a pot
i have kniphofia, echinacea, lupin, liatris, eryngium
Tiny and dried out. Pot them up, water them in and protect them til spring
