When ?

[trevp]

To plant the Marigold seeds that Ali kindly gave me last year.

My book says "annuals seeds, plant Sept to Feb" !!

I think we're all dying to plant Ali's seeds, and others. It's going to have to wait until sometime in April Trev, the soil is just too cold at the moment.
Well, mine's frozen!
I reckon the season, compared to last year, is about 3 weeks behind. I had seedlings coming up in the greenhouse ( for annuals) on the 17th of March, no hope of that this year.
