Free: Blue hardy geraniums (Hatfield AL10) Hardy perennial blue geranium, variety I believe is "Johnson's Blue". These are divisions from autumn potted into new pots this spring, so no huge rush to plant. (Actually, my labelling system broke down and there may be a 15% chance these are pink, but it's the same idea.) This hardy geranium or cranesbills is tolerant and easy to grow with blue flowers from early summer. Compact plants with smart mounds of soft downy green leaves. Cut back after flowering in mid summer for a fresh flush of foliage, and maybe once again going into autumn. It will die down in the winter and come back year after year. Fully winter hardy in the uk. Not troubled by slugs or other pests. Doesn't mind my sticky clay or a bit of shade, but wants a bit of sun to flower better.

Free: Bluebells in the green (Hatfield AL10) Bluebells - they are beautiful but they also come up in silly places and I'm constantly digging them out. "In the green" so plant as soon as you can, but they'll be ok for a weeks or so - best if you keep them under damp soil/compose meanwhile. (Actually bluebells are incredibly tough so they'll be fine if you mistreat them.) Photo is from May 2021. Happy in wet sticky clay in partial shade but should be fine on almost any soil and ok in full sun. (Also, if you are a fan of bluebells, go and visit the ancient woodland bit of Heartwood Forest this weekend if you can.)

Free: Spare kale seedlings (cavolo nero) (Hatfield AL10) I potted on more than enough kale seedlings this week, so I have some small pots of spares. "Black Magic" is a variety of cavolo nero or black Tuscan kale. Kale is a fairly strong growing plant and produces a lot of tasty leaves throughout the year if you can keep it happy. Main problems are pigeons and caterpillars at certain times of year. It will grow all through the summer and autumn, stand through the winter, start growing again in spring and then run to flower. It's fully frost hardy in the UK. You can eat the flower heads like purple sprouting broccoli and any you don't will open to masses of cheery yellow flowers loved by bees.

Free: Bugle plants (ajuga reptans) (Hatfield AL10) Passing on some bits of a nice ground cover plant originally given to me by a fellow freecycler a few years ago. Bugle or ajuga reptans is an easy going low growing spreading hardy herbaceous perennial (leaves die each winter, but it comes back and flowers every spring). It likes a bit of shade and damp ground. It seems to do well on my sticky clay in a dark corner. It has nice shiny bronze/purply leaves with dark flower spikes opening to pretty blue flowers beloved of pollinators. It spreads by creeping over the ground and it can spread quickly, but it's not really a problem because it's easy to pull out since it has shallow roots. Then you can give away chunks...
