A bx of plants arrived from Thompson and Morgan. I could remember that I was due another delivery from them, but not what I had ordered.
They were plug plants, and I didn't recognise them. Were they vegetable or flowers, for the beds or for pots? There was nothing inside the box to say, and I couldn't find the catalogue to check all I had marked off to order.
I went to look to see if there was any reference number on the box label so I could phone Thompson & Morgan to ask, to find the label said what they were sweet potato plugs.
I tried these last year without success, and looking on a Thompson & Morgan website I didn't see anything in the description to enlighten me as to why I decided to try again.
I've put them 2 each to a large pot, which I will keep indoors for a week or two.
I did put out the courgettes in cut-off 5 litre water bottles to protect from slugs and, hopefully, the fox cubs, and the tomatoes in these bottomless pots with a well round the outside for watering - hopefully also protected from the cubs. However, if the foxes do decide to play in that vegetable bed, then the protection won't be enough!
