I might move house this year. It’s very early days, but the possibility of having a bigger garden is sending my plant-collecting gene into overdrive. I currently grow plants in my small, shady courtyard garden. But after four years of this, I long

in pots. While you can plant dahlia tubers directly into the soil, it's good to give them a head start under glass, before hardening off and planting out in late May. This not only ensures large, healthy plants with lots of flowering potential, but also

want filler plants for beds and containers. Garden-ready plugs can be planted out if it’s warm enough, but can also be grown on for a few weeks in a large pot, for sturdier roots.PencilDibberGood quality compostPotsMarch - April15 minutes
