In particular, as you say, I don't get that shrinking back from the side of the pot when they have got dried out as you do with plastic ones. All my hostas are 'potted' and do extremely well.<br /><br />Your pictures of pot displays have made me feel excited at the prospect of planting stuff up again this year. I had never thought of planting sempervivums around the roots of my potted trees - they look really pretty.Arabella Sockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10936438011119860497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5029038934805250881.post-83609822885603718482012-03-18T07:12:38.390-07:002012-03-18T07:12:38.390-07:00Some great tips and info here, Harriet.
