i want to put a load of bulbs in, here there and about. i was thinking a whole bunch of kinds, inc tulips and summer bulbs (whatever they are)... can i put them in anytime? even if i assume i wont see them for anopther year... daffs for example i wouldnt expect to see till next year... but is there a limit on when to put them in?

kt, hello. Newly addicted veg grower here. Can I put my borlotti and dawf french beans into my new raised beds this weekend? They are about 10/12 cm tall?

Also, when can I put out strawberry plants? In our humble opinion, is there likely to be anymore frost in the North Kent area?

Thanks

Fran

THanks, Re tomatos, have had a very poor start with mine, are there better varieties than others? I prefer a cherry tom.
