    She was the gardening manager you tit. 

    I'm not stupid or rude
    I think you've just proved that you are.
    That's completely uncalled for to speak to another forum member that way.  :/
    So it's OK that forum member presumed I was condescending or rude to the person I spoke about the plants. I was very polite in the questions I asked but he/she presumed otherwise which is wrong

    She [Impatient Gardener] didn't presume, she suggested that maybe you had been rude and that may have been  the reason staff member walked away. 

    In any case - there was no justification for what you called I. Gardener. 
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    You referred to the staff member in your original post as "a woman", not the manager / supervisor of the garden section. You may well have not been rude to her, but there was no way Impatient Gardener could have known she was the manager from your post. There is no need to refer to Impatient Gardener in that way.

    Don’t even bother to distress yourself over waste, we live in a throw away society, if amazon didn’t take the tele’s to the tip other people would, some people need to change everything in their houses ever two years, out it all goes, and buy new. 
    Same with plants, it’s the instant gratification world these days, no point in distressing yourself over the plants. Or waste for that matter. 
    Im feeling right curmudgeonly this afternoon, as you can tell.

    Gardening on the wild, windy west side of Dartmoor.

    Remember when Burberry burned £90m worth of stock rather than sell it cheap :|
    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    I know this is a gardening forum ... but when you’re in that big a hole you really should stop digging 🤣 

    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
