Plant them in a well prepared soil. most will like a free draining soil with added compost. Also ensure that they are not dry when you take them out of the pots. Once planted keep them watered whilst they establish. \u00a0 Have a great week gardening and see you next week!<\/p>\n<p>Andrew<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>-Continue to cut grass as it is now growing after all the rains we have had! -After the dry spell <a class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.phoenixfm.com\/?p=30117\"><b>read more<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-30117","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-sunday-best"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.phoenixfm.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30117","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.phoenixfm.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.phoenixfm.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.phoenixfm.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/24"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.phoenixfm.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=30117"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/staging.phoenixfm.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30117\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":30128,"href":"https:\/\/staging.phoenixfm.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30117\/revisions\/30128"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.phoenixfm.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=30117"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.phoenixfm.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=30117"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.phoenixfm.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=30117"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
