Sunflowers five and six don’t look like they are going to make it.

I have however replanted them in the original tray thingie and given them a good drink. I’m not holding out much hope though.

Next up I moved the sunflowers, we bought four smaller pots for each of the healthy sunflowers. Here’s number one naked (apart from his stick):

And here’s number two safely re-potted:

One and three in their new homes, under the kitchen window next to some other plant thingies:

And here are two and four, a few feet away:

Note that one, two and three all need new sticks as they’ve outgrown their current ones (which are actually chopsticks). Four doesn’t have a stick at the moment since she’s doing fine without.

I moved the Nasturtiums first. After filling a huge pot with compost and prodding a couple of dozen holes in it, I moved them by carefully uprooting them from their tray with an old teaspoon:

Some of them had quite big roots:

Despite my size I can be delicate!:

And here they are in their new home:

I have to say that they look a little ragged and unwell. Although after such a major operation (and they were a little parched anyway before I started) I’m not that surprised. Hopefully the gallon of water I just drenched them in will help them recover.

Here they are outside awaiting their move to new outside pots. We went to Van Hage’s and bought terracotta pots and a load of compost.
