    We would like to buy a Half Standard Bay tree, for outside the front door.
    Does anyone have a recommended supplier for these trees - or who to avoid?
    Just seen the price of corkscrew bay trees!!! No wonder they get stolen.

    TIA

    Sorry, can't help you. We keep digging out bay trees and chucking them. They keep coming up like mad in our garden. :rolleyespink: Especially since we took 20ft of ours two years ago.

      Keep an eye out for TescoMorrisons deals on Bays. Seen some nice ones in the past for much cheepness.

        That's a good idea Tam :blue thumb: Asda do similar large plant deals. We have a lovely standard olive tree for £20 and a Mediterranean palm for £14. Amazing value.

          Going off topic slightly, but I bought a lemon plant from morrisons last summer and picking fruit already. Their plants are really good value and quality if you get there at the right time.
