No you're not too late, in fact when Mrs. DD. took on her plot a couple of years ago, one of the chaps down there gave her some left over Charlotte in June. Had a great crop.

I would chase up the supplier though.

They must be chitting them for you. :wink:  You shall not do it again. :lol:

If you are this late getting them, you can just pop down to the garden centre, really.

But they will grow OK, no worries, just will be a bit later, I'd ring up though.
