You can pot them up now if you want. I find that slug attacks are very rare if they are potted in zinc pots. It also sets them off very well, so you may want to use them rather than terracotta or plastic.

thankyou Kildermorie :)

You lucky thing, being able to go to big flower shows like Malvern. I hope the weather was better for you than it was on Gardeners' World on Friday - it looked horrendously cold, wet and windy! I have nudged my way into your question Kate, because I have a couple of hostas in pots, too, so am interested to know the answer! Sorry!

oh thats ok Gattina nudge away..and yes the weather was glorious yesterday it was very busy though :)

Have you seen Stick's blog re malvern......its great!

I,d pot them up as Kilder says,
I think they dobetter in bigger pots,they don,t dry out as quickly
