    Just ordered a load of seeds from T&M, and paid £4.46 for the lot - the bulk was paid for with gift vouchers that they sent as compensation for muck ups with my order this year. The only slight pain in the rear is that the free P&P didn't extend to seeds, but to be fair I think I saved enough.......

              Kristen if you want any , I`ll buy them for you ......but to be honest I really don`t know if they will manage to survive outdoor .......they had loads of New Zealand plants , really cheap from fern to grass , loads of astelia chathamica for £2.50

              [​IMG]

              but doubt they will survive outdoor , there are loads of plants from a £1 onward , big palm still £25 and large bamboo fr £15

                Put my Campanulas into my flower beds (plug plants) last week, as I'm going on holiday for 2 weeks and didn't want them to die in the greenhouse.. I think slugs have destroyed them :doh:

                well, slugs or something else has! they're just a rootball now. Ahh, still learning.

                  Bought 5 of these 34cm diameter planters from Home Bargains for £1.99 each :)

                  [​IMG]

                  I'm going to use them for tulips and some summer flowering annuals.

                    My latest acquisition to replace the sound of running water now that the pond has gone. Will put some Red LED lights in front soon for night time viewing.

                        A 10L Malus Royalty half price for £24.99. Just the job for where I want it. Might go back and get another one for the front garden.

                            Just been back to Bents to buy another half price Malus Royalty and also picked up a H/S Photinia half price for £24.99 :biggrin:

                            [​IMG]

                            Not the best of specimens but with a bit of TLC they'll soon bush out.
