Re- Housebricks.

Glad you like them! Here's a few planting tips..........
Don't try to start them off with too many rosettes, let them establish slowly - 2 or 3 per hole.
Don't let them bake in the sun for the first year ( what sun ???). Keep them in relative shade and water them .
From late autumn they can be put out and ignored.
Make many more than you need - your friends will want some.
A £2 pot of them from the garden centre ought to fill about 15 -20 bricks.

Good luck Keith.
