We sell lots of plants mostly perennials and shrubs when we open our garden and when we give talks to clubs and societies. I take the shrub cuttings and Jude deals with seed sowing and looking after plant divisions and self seeded perennials.
The greenhouse is almost exclusively used to sow and then grow on Jude’s perennial seeds.
As they reach a suitable size they are potted on and then hardened off in trays outside. This also allows us to water them from below.
Cuttings taken from succulents are also kept in the greenhouse until they are large enough to pot on and move outside. Perennials end up on the shelves in Jude’s little nursery which has a label saying “Jude’s Micro-nursery”.
At about the same time dahlias are potted on when they show good new growth after their winter rest. Begonias are hardened off too.
