Early Spring Planting

Plant these hardy varieties now so their roots can establish before flowering and before any droughts start in spring and summer. â€‹

I have selected a range of plants that are fully hardy in case of any late frosts, are relatively slug-tolerant, which is especially important as the weather warms up but is still wet, and that will grow in our local clayey soils.​

You can find plants for damp soils at the bottom of this page.
