Planted out:
Dahlia Bishop of Llandaff potted tuber
Dwarf sunflowers Yellow Pygmy (saved seed)
Cosmos Purity (saved seed)
Calendula Nova
Rosakrone pea
The Rosakrone are replacements as half of the original lot were attacked by either a cat or pigeon. Luckily I had spare seed so sowed more and put twiggy sticks around them to hopefully deter critters.
The forecast tonight goes down to 6c so I've fleeced the three tomatoes and dwarf beans I have in containers. Hardly seems possible that it'll get so cold given how warm it has been today, but I'm not risking it. It's meant to be equally cold the next three nights so I'm waiting until later in the week to plant out the indeterminate tomatoes, sweetcorn and squash.
