He'll have called into Morrisons on his way to pick up some flower buckets to stand them in for the first few hours............

I controlled my enthusiasm until lunchtime!
Two Elstars and a Cox! Cox and Elstar for new house garden as they pollinate each other and an Elstar for lottie as I don't think I've got one.
To answer another grapes question..........I don't think they are on a really dwarfing rootstock but tuthers that I am growing in a cordon along with pears along the edge of my lottie are faring very well and are quite prolific.
I have them cordoned at 45 degrees with an overall vertical height of 6 foot only.
They all came from Aldi or suchlike over the years and were all bare rooted. I have about 10 different varieties now.
The Cox and Elstar I've bought for my retirement house garden, and I'm going to have a go at growing these in an ornamental Espalier against the fence.
A long time project which hopefully I will reap the rewards to on my retirement!
They are all going in a water butt this evening for a soak with a view to planting them at the weekend.My Majesty made for him a garden anew in order

I've never tried Elstar what does it taste like?
I've been planning to grow some espaliers in the back garden for a few years, would these sit happily in a pot for a couple of weeks, as I'm unlikely to get them into there forever home for about three weeks.I'm only here cos I got on the wrong bus.Comment

They would probably sit in a water butt ok for a couple of weeks..........like my last lot did!Originally posted by Mikeywills View Post
I'll let you know about the Elstar in a year or two!

Reply to Heated mat for Tom's and chilliesI use a mix of six scoops of compost three scoops of sand/grit and two scoops of perlite,the quantity is unimportant as long as the ratio is the same, if for seeds I use this mix, if I am potting on I add some blood, fish and bone, along with a small quantity of chicken manure pellets
