    I have access to sometimes large umbers of plants that are 'wasted' often wih very little wrong with them, if anybody knows of a worthwhile project in lancashire that could use them it is possible they could be donated.
    The project would need to collect, perhaps at short notice, the plants would be a mixed bag and they MUST not be for resale....I find it heartbreaking disposing of healthy plants but its prooving difficult to give them away.

    Hi Plantman Yes I know what you mean I.m sure there are plenty of charities that would welcome them,Hospices, Helping Hands and Schools ect maybe who have a project going on,I know that they would bite your hand off for them down here as I regularly do some Gardening work for them:)
