The three 'Balcony charm' tomatoes fit nicely in the herb pots. The 'Green zebra' transplants made it into the new pots.
Broccoli 'Romanesco Natalino', finally. This is the first year;I'll see how they grow in pots.
I am trying one Broccoli 'Munchkin' transplanted to its final home. The other I'll put in the cold frame until it gets a bit bigger. I have read that they do not like being transplanted; so this will be a trial run. (I plant vegetables, herbs and fruit in pots.) (only flowers, shrubs etc., are in the garden beds because of space issues)
Only two Impatiens stayed in the original pot. It's funny how one is usually a bit larger than the rest. I will have a dozen plants for my hanging rail planter out front.
Three mystery plants in various stages of growth...are they weeds? Only time will tell.

The garden update
Another Dragonfly...
'YOU and ME' in Purple Primula x tommasinii.
Just a few flowers; notice the nesting flower pattern.
Variegated Silene uniflora below the rock and Primula vulgaris double 'Val Horncastle' to the left of it. I can't wait until they fill in.
Yellow Erysimum (wallflower); one in each pot.
Purple Pansies over wintered well and a Primula wulfeniana sending up one umbel of purple flowers. Snapdragon 'Harvest red' in terracotta pot with wallflower and an Auricula Primrose.
Nemesia, Diascia and a hanging basket of Calibrachoa
wait for a few weeks in the cold frame.
Plants filling in under the tree in the backyard.
