The plugs are tiny, will need growing on in small pots, then you could plant out in autumn and cloche them against the worst of the winter.
But i grew that sort of thing at the allotment without much trouble as long as the plants arent tender, perennials should be fine
Bear I mind though that if it's this months offer they are being sent out in August (I think that what I read) and realistically if it's anything like last time it may well be nearer the end of September which may only give you a month-6 weeks growing time.
I bought the perennials last time as plugs and they are growing brilliantly (I think it was May when I got mine) some even have flowers, although they are now desperate to be repotted so that's this weekend'd job.
Well worth it for £5.95 but still try and get some polystyrene boxes as recommended by Bekkie.
