            Yes but localy , Al n if you looking to buy lots of plants , with the money you save you will get the petrol money back , plus they do an extra 10% off on membership , It will worth if you want to buy large specimen , perhaps , most of the nice plants have gone .
            they had about 5/6 ensete superbum last sunday all gone , black bamboo all gone lots of hibiscus as well ...and many other.

            It's not the fuel costs sal as I know what I spend in diesel I'll get back, it's the 8 hour round trip plus the time looking and buying I can't do at the mo with the little 'un. :dbgrtmb:

              The £100 da, palms, nanas, bamboos, chamerops, zebra grass, yukka's. Basically, prob would have thrown around £300 - £400 at it, (to buy stuff ready to put into the front garden for when I eventually sort it at the end of the year)


              But knowing me, I'd probably come away with a fair bit more!
