Saw some nice plants on qvc but I won't buy if they use tea bags. Does anyone know?

    @B3 This is becoming a very interesting topic I don't know if they do or not.
    Perhaps gardeners should be aware of those sellers that do so that choices can be made.

    It might be worth contacting the grower/supplier directly @B3  and expressing your thoughts if the answer is "Yes"! If everyone did this, they might change their poor practices!

    I thought they only sold bulbs and corms etc. Do they sell other forms too @B3

    Yes.
    They make a big deal about growing plants from cuttings so that they grow true to type but I'd be interested to know what they like the cuttings into

    Doesn't sound hopeful. Could you send them an email about something else (an easy question they would not mind answering) and see if they reply and how long it takes them. That could give you a clue as to their intentions.

    I could @clematisdorset but I can't even remember what plants I fancied so they've lost a sale anyway.

    Yep, their loss, @B3. Hope they up their game.

    I posted yesterday on Gardener Suze OAP garden.I purchased a sarcacocca with a net just to say I have removed it with ease today. It was bio degrading. It was purchased from Blue Diamond GC who must use many different suppliers.
