I think I have made a mistake!I think I have made a mistake!At present I have lupin, poppy (the small red ones), dianthus and borrage seedlings growing in the greenhouse. I wonder if it is too late to plant them, and will they survive until next spring
Re: I think I have made a mistake!I'd plant them out. Or if they are in big enough pots, enjoy them in the greenhouse.
Lupins are perennial, they keep going from one year to the next. Not sure about the others. Dance caller. http://mo-dance-caller.blogspot.co.uk/p/what-i-do.html

Re: I think I have made a mistake!Me too. The kind that eat my potatoes. Just a little hole but the inside is a warren of tunnels.

Sunny Clucker enjoyed Folk music and song in mid-Cheshire Re: I think I have made a mistake!My lupin seedlings are still in pots in the greenhouse. I do not want to plant them out due to the slug situation, and am hoping to be able to overwinter them where they are. They are about six inches tall with large leaves.
Re: I think I have made a mistake!Sounds OK doesn't it.
Hope they do well. Dance caller. http://mo-dance-caller.blogspot.co.uk/p/what-i-do.html

Re: I think I have made a mistake!The lupins appear to have settled into the large container.I am saving borrage,pansy and antirrhinum (sp?) seeds for next year.
