    Miracle Gro MPC - avoid!

    Well done @cactus_girl Have to say I also recently bought MPC from the local Wickes store and I wasn't too thrilled with it. It is getting more difficult to find a decent MPC these days tho.

    I didn’t notice this had sprung up between the snowdrops! I love these, I’d planted a couple two years ago, but thought they had given up. So pleased to see them.
