This Haxnicks King Size Victorian Bell Cloche 8 Pack is perfect for warming soil and encouraging seedlings and young plants to grow. These cloches are well suited to keeping herbaceous border plants and semi-hardy perennials over winter, growing winter lettuces, encouraging early crops of fruit, vegetables and salads and establishing kitchen herb gardens.
I think it's a little early to post a really honest opinion of these cloches as I've only had them for a few weeks. They are the largest bell-cloches I could find and seem very good quality. I plunged canes into the ground and passed them through the adjustable air vents in the tops of the cloches to prevent them blowing away in the wind which is working very well. The soil under the cloches is noticeably warmer than the surrounding soil, and my plants are looking good. The test will be if we have a hard frost, not had one since planting out. One thing I would like is that each cloche has four holes in through which you can pass skewers to anchor them down. There are no skewers/pegs provided and I've not been able to buy any. Perhaps they should be supplied with the cloches?????
The bell cloche is a great bit of kit. Light, strong, durable, and so easy to use. I use mine to cover all of my succulents from October to March, keeps them dry and just that little bit warmer through the winter months. Great value too.
An excellent strong cloche that will help me over winter our dahlia's, canna's in the ground etc.
