I am sure that it must come in hand a few times a months...

looks like thats the end of their advertising on gc

Yes, I placed an order with VM about three years ago, and was most disappointed. The plants were several days in transit, and were more or less dead when they arrived. Those that did survive were not of good quality, and I've not since had any dealings with yhe firm.

Now that's the kind of bargain I like to find, blue1952! Well done you!

I drive past Plantworld every day and currently there's a double 'hedge' of Echiums in full flower along Ray Brown's roadside boundary. There are very tidy looking 'towers' of pininana backed by the white variety. It looks quite impressive ATM. I must try and get a pic.

Container shrubs, roses, fruit trees, bedding, herbs, tomato, bean and pepper plants in pots, seeds, bulbs (in season) Roses include stock from David Austin, both DAs English roses and some of the older varieties, Gallicas, Albas and species roses, also some from Harkness. Trellis, fencing,...

Went to Homebase this morning - it had been pouring with rain all morning, but I ended up rescuing a courgette pot and a chive pot because they were bone dry - no-one had thought either to water them or put them outside in the rain!

Thanks, oktarine, Ill give them a whirl

I would recommend Jekka's Herb Farm http://www.jekkasherbfarm.comI have been buying from her for years...and her stand is usally the first one I visit at Chelsea Flower Show. She has some wonderfully scented varieties of sage and mint!

I won't be ordering from Sarah Raven again. Mine took three and a half weeks to arrive ( I was told it would be 10 days, and I thought that was long enough). It took three phone calls too!

Hi, I leave half my cannas in the ground over winter the other half I dig up just incase! But the ones in the ground do come up every year, but they don't show till June cos they are late summer/autumn flowers, not brought on like the ones you buy in the garden centre.

I can second that, my plants were also very good. Splendid variety of plants too.

I used to buy paper bags from this place when I was working. As many shapes, sizes, colours as you could possibly desire: http://www.boxes-bags.com/acatalog/Bags.htmlObviously just buying 100 bags is expensive for postage but may be a group could share?

Sparkle has it on the first post. :DBut these are the large ones http://www.thegardensuperstore.co.uk/acatalog/Extra_Large_Plant_Pots.htmlBM

Thanks wildflower, I'll register now. Just been to a family wedding and have stacks to print! Thanks!!

jungle seeds and plants have got a good sale on at the moment for those that like that sort of plant..http://www.junglegardens.co.uk/

No Waco not expensive... �£8 a piece and �£7 if you buy 5 and you and I know you only get what you pay for... well that is if you are lucky and I was with this firm. Hope your pups are thriving PS Oh the new varieties are more expensive
