    Thought some of you might appreciate a heads up - Thompson & Morgan are doing a deal where you can get 36 perennial plants free, only having to pay £4.90 P&P - keep a close eye on your emails if you are on their mailing list, as I think its a click-through job only.

    EDIT - try this link - you might need to put the order code of GPWSE78 in at the checkout if it doesn't automatically apply the discount.

      My confirmation email said "delivery before the end of August" Yikes!!!:SUNsmile:

      Now if my Postie decides he won`t deliver in the rain, it might be next July before I get them :lunapic 130165696578242 5:

      That's odd, mine said by end of July? Maybe they are just covering themselves given what a slow year its been?

      I reckon you`re right.

      I`d expect them to be delivered within a fortnight to be honest.

      Or am I being a tad ambitious? I wouldn`t want to plant plugs into September.

      Any delivery yet?

      I must admit, I genuinely thought they`d be sent out by now.

      No, nothing - bit disappointed, as I could do with them to fill spaces where the dog has wrecked my annuals.

        Well guys, mines finally arrived today.

        A quick question. As there are 6 of each species, should I pot them up individually or say 3 in a pot?
        Although they`re perennials, am I right in thinking I shouldn`t plant them out until next year?

        Thanks folks.

        Mine arrived today as well, small they may be but they are very healthy :dbgrtmb:

        Gretzky I would pot them all up individually in to either large cell trays or 3" pots and grow them on until next spring; being so small I would also give them winter protection of a cold frame or cold greenhouse :dbgrtmb:
