Tip of the Week

True hardy annuals are plants that you sow outside which grow, flower and die in the same year.
The advantages of growing these plants are:
(1)Cost effectiveness: You can grow masses of colorful, plants for just the cost of the seeds.You donīt need a greenhouse,compost or trays.
(2)You canīt buy half grown plants in the stores: Many hardy annuals resent root disturbance so nurseries tend not to grow them.
(3)Many types make good cutflowers.
(4)Easily grown: Introduce yourself and your children to the wonders of growing plants from seed.
(5)Cottage gardening: Hardy annuals fit in with the current re-interest in this style of gardening and seed suppliers have reintroduced heritage types.
