    I have recently signed up to Groupon. Over the last coulple of months or so there have been plenty of plant offers. Does anyone have experience of buying plants on there? At the moment there is an offer of Jasmine Star of Tuscany in 9cm pots, £11.99 each or 3 for £27, plus £1.99 delivery. It seems a good price. Potentially I could us 2 in my garden although I am not ready for them yet. Do I get them or not?. All advise appreciated.

    If that's right that's a very small pot for the money. At Crocus it's only £14.99 for a 2l pot.

    Think I'd just nip down the local nursery or garden centre, much less hassle and you can see what you are buying.:smile:
    I only buy plants on line that are unlikely to be available locally.

      Hi Jack , that is way too expensive for what will be a rooted cutting in a 3" pot.
