Hi Everyone, today I popped into the nurseries and bought some plants for my balcony pots. I bought trailing geraniums, fushia, million bells, bacopa and lobelia.

Do you think its safe to plant my pots now? I have checked the weather and can't see any freezing weather on the way.

Thank you :D

    In London, I reckon you'd be unlucky to get a hard frost now.

    There was a warning this morning for possible frosts in the next week that was London forecasts. I am going to put my tender plants in the garage just in case.

    If you can bring them indoors once they are planted then I guess you will be okay. Otherwise I wouldn't plant anything tender out yet.

    I'm 100 miles north of you though, in Leicester.
