My little plantlets went outside yesterday and are being well watered in today. I’ve already lost one - the dog trod on it and snapped it. The other 4 look very happy and are already about 3” tall!

I appear to have some self-seeders from last year...didn't know until I went to repot some other plants and discovered them, along with a hazel that some squirrels buried in an empty plant pot.
