Dvorak May 2019 2:54pm, 2 May 2019 17,525 posts	Quote Pin Dvorak Finally planted my own on Monday. In a propogator, in a greenhouse. Had though no point in an early start - then missed the great weather over Easter for them. I've been remiss regarding planting anything - sheesh, sticking a few seeds into compost, it's not that hard!
