According to the recipe!

It's time to get ready for the fair!
 Gather the ingredients!
 40 litres potting soil, 5 litres Perlite 
and 4 hand fulls of dried and crumbled beech leaves!
 Get your hands in there and give it a good mix! You're ready!
and Hosta Touch of class are all ready to grow!
I think I'll try a round of copper tape just to make sure!
Do you want to see the results?
