SHOW US YOUR RECENT PURCHASES 2018

Sml Various Acers at £4 a pop (Homebase)...thank you very much..lol
and some little skewers to act as plant markers for 1 beer token will do nicely too

 

Will mooch around my local nursery later......dont know what or if I want anything but will look see
It's a big nursery growing lots of stuff incl the unusual.
Also want to pay a visit to Surreal Succulents sometime just a few miles from here to add to my collection of echevarias , aeoniums etc

 

That's not bad C acers at £4 each morrisons wanted £7-99 and those plant markers on Amazon are more expensive i'm sure..as I do a lot of buying things from there...unless hubby sees stuff cheaper while out

 

The cheapest Amazon have them at is 100 by 9cm £3-41p

 

I wouldn't look over paying even that for 100...They are handy

 

Homebase have hanging baskets of Chilli plants (Basket of Fire)
Since my Strawberry hanging baskets are done for this year I might buy 2 if even only for the seed. I tried these this year and they were the only Chilli that never germinated...So for £4 a pop for a large productive plant ...I dont mind paying...and I will also pick up the terracotta pots for the legs of the "Terracotta Gardener" lol

 

We saw some a lot cheaper at one garden centre and hubby kept saying get some and I was refusing now I wished I had got them

 

The Terracotta Gardener now as a complete set of limbs...or will have and the sinew to string him/her along

 

Pic please when finally done C

 

Its all a process @Gail_68 hahahaha

 

well chop chop and move yourself

 

As I never work to a designated plan the in-between time allows me to think and change things on the fly...I might see something else on my travels, something that would improve on my existing thought for this piece...but mainly it allows time for the missus to become accustomed to the idea of some stranger taking up bench space in our garden hahahahaha

 

Popped into Home Bargains today.

Dianthus plants £1.49 each.
Black pots 79p each.
