...
i have some tubers and would like to get them established in pots
before they go outside.
what would be the correct soil type?


The Flower Expert by Dr. D.G. Hessayon states that the Purple Cornflower
"thrives in any well-drained garden soil, in full sun" ......... "an easy
plant to grow but a hungry one, add compost before planting and feed during
summer".
Incidently, when you write your gardening encyclopedia and become rich and
famous, I hope you never forget us urglers.
