Plant up and hang baskets with Lucy, Jeff and Patti.
I add the pre soaked plastic backed felt to base of baskets with some misgivings.
Jeff and I mix up compost, 2 x John Innes 2 , 1 bag non peat compost, 400g Osmocote and in pm, after Jim finds the sack, 300g water retaining gel.
We all plant a few 'sunny' baskets. Then Lucy & Jeff ride off to hang them. I hang one with Jeff in Exbury Square, but avoid climbing ladder due to Jims size 10 boots being cumbersome.
Rest of day, Patti and I based in greenhouse, I mix compost and we plant up
both sunny and shade while Jeff and Lucy hang them and Jim counts them.
Rain holds off so perfect and we make good progress.Sunny
