    I wouldn't have any of the flower ones, it may attract too many bees (they look that real)

    The Ha website says homebase and focus have them too. Only question is, have they got any actually in stock?

    I purchased a yard art last year from B&Q it was a picture of trees and I'm sure it cost me �£19.99 but i only had a fence to put it on and it didn't look right so i took it back, now i want one for our garage, the side of it faces the back garden and i would love the sunflower picture to put there. looked at all the shops on HA interiors for a yard art, which besides the above i found that home base and focus selled them in nottingham, but when i rang up nobody knew what i was talking about. There's some on the internet but the cheapest with postage is �£29.99, some are over �£80. I am most disapointed as i would love one.
    Perhaps when it gets warmer they will come back in the shops, and maybe will cost a lot more money.

    Hi Dee I just wanted to ask how fade resistant these picture are do you know by any chance?

    The only reason I ask is that one would make a stunning display in any garden but it would also be a shame if it lost it's colour so quick.Hel.xxx.
