    Certainly! I should think it would take ages from seed.

        You all know that we have a bookstall as well and there will be some gardening books on it. I'll ask the people that are running the stall for us to put them in a separate box and we'll get the box over to the GC table so that you can have first choice.

        Here are a couple of the books. There won't be a set price for them and you can make us an offer :blue thumb:

        The first book, on Amazon, is £25 and the second is £16

        Have had a rumage in the greenhouse and this is all the plants I have up for grabs. Anyone who wants any of them please let me know in advance as I don't intend to bring them all.

        Red Hot Pokers x 2
        Scented Nightstock (at least I think these are, they were donated to me, they have deep purple flowers) x 2
        2 x Large Strawberry plants
        4 x Hostas, some plain some variegated
        Also Clivia plants x 3 (which is a houseplant but wasn't sure if it was any good to anyone)

        If there is one spare I'd like one please.

        Actually, I could make a feature with more than one, but if anyone else wants one I'll be very happy with one :)

        Hi Jane,

        Even if some of the GC members don't want the Hostas, can you bring them for the plant sale? Hostas always sell well and although we have quite a few I'm sure we could sell them.

        Many thanks :blue thumb:

          I would happily give you them all for your salvias, but having a look at them two of them seem a bit unhappy, one is fine though which I shall bring along. If you want the other two then I shall bring those and you could try to give them a better home if you want.

          I shall bring the hostas along for Shiney, although the man with the hole punch has had a go at some of the leaves.

          Kristen, there's a box of plants waiting for you on the GC table, from Loli. :)

          Loads of plants have already been brought for the plant sale from Jenny, loli and ARMANDII and Mum picked up Vince's plants and delivered them. Thanks all of you! :dbgrtmb:
