Today we planted some pots for Mrs Peck. We had strict criteria that we had to stick to when we decided what plants to put in. After a lot of investigating we decided to plant Polyanthas and Pansies. Here is the process we went through...
 |
| First we cut the weed mat |
 |
| Then we put it in the bottom of the pot over the drain hole so the dirt won't fall out and bugs can't get in |
 |
| Next we add stones on the bottom to help with drainage |
 |
| We put in some potting mix up to the 2/3 mark |
 |
| We needed to loosen the roots so the plant doesn't become root-bound |
 |
| Place the plants carefully in the pot and push the soil around them |
 |
| Put more plants in to fill up the pot |
 |
| Ask someone super strong to lift the pots outside - thanks Ben's Dad! |
 |
| Arrange the pot so it looks good |

| Smile for the camera! Well done Piako 2! |
