Wow, I'm way behind. I have "only" 16 on order for this year and none in pots. I did send an email to Naylor Creek yesterday to see if they can ship my order at the end of April rather than the beginning of May, have not heard back from them yet. 15 of my 16 newbies are coming from them
This weekend I fertilized and started weeding. I also put slug bait under a few overturned plastic pots and "watered" the bait, targeting the areas that had the worst slug damage last year. That is a new tactic for me for 2010.
