@Tharg, i use the hanging basket remains to top up the raised beds its suprising what appears even after being sat all winter. middle of may i get all the baskets wash and clean them and spend a weekend preparing moss and towelling bits to line them before planting. dont leave them outside like that or some bloody robin will have the best lined nest in the county. as i found out last year.new compost and some john innes mixed with gel and slow release feed. had some beauties over the years but my fair share of disasters too.
