How to plant young plants

Enjoy the sense of achievement & satisfaction of growing your own beautiful flowering plants to brighten up your borders, pots & baskets this season. Choose from a wide range of different varieties of flowers to suit your own individual style & experiment with different colour themes or stick to the ones you love.  It is a great early spring project and you can get started as early as February indoors or in a heated greenhouse.
