I was rejoicing to no end because I finally got the first sprout of my anemones in pots until this morning when I saw it completely munched to the stem most probably by a slug. Just devastating for me as poppies and anemones are my favourite spring flowers. My aquilegias, on the other hand, are doing just fine like yours. We are more behind here in central Germany than you; we're colder here than in Kent but slowly getting there. Thanks again for your inspiring content!!
Those hungry slugs have no idea of the heartbreak their appetites can cause! We hope the rest of your poppies and anemones escape unharmed and bring you much joy. With thanks and sending our best wishes from Kent to central Germany.
Absolutely lovely! I'm really curious to know what you use to fill the big containers and do they have drainage holes? Do you put the plants in plastic pots first?
Thank you so much! Several of the largest patio containers have inner plastic pots of spring bulbs, so that size-matched pots of agapanthus and salvias can be rotated in when at their best over summer. Their roots love the extra moisture from the layer of compost/soil beneath the secondary plastic pot, and all plastic and ornamental containers have drainage holes (although we put blu tack over the holes in dry spells, to retain moisture when watering).
Can someone tell me what is the flower at 6:40 ? The soft pink with an egg yolk center. It completely stunned me by its color pattern. Please and thank you!!!
Absolutely stunning 🌸🌷🌸🌷💕

This makes sense to me and I'll try your method in the summer.
