I planted all of mine at the weekend, took longer than what I expected as it was a bit windy and it was hadr laying the weed fabric by myself :) I got them all in in the end and by the next day they had already perked up and were opening their leaves.

thank  :) if you click on the blog link there are quite a few other pictures Jamie, one plot is 70ft x 15ft the other in the picture is 20ft one end and 25ft the other and 40ft long so they are both pretty good sizes. Whether it will look like this the end of next year is another thing :lol:
