Charles’ Introduction
“In March with the first signs of spring and the promise of warmer weather ahead it’s a busy time for sowing. That’s why I’ve recommended 13 varieties to sow this month – the biggest pack of the year! Although the daylight hours are rapidly increasing, it is still cold outside, so start everything under cover except for a few, dependent on weather.”
