i am Lincolnshire boarder with notts so yes a tad too far!!!
i have perennials that I took from cuttings that I pray overwinter in my mums unheated GH but I planted so many I hope to sell a few to passers by. Make some pennies. Or even friends and family for peanuts. Pray they overwinter pls. Txx
Plant fairs, open gardens and packets of seeds supplied me with most of my garden. Patience was required. Some of the shrubs took a year or ten to make much impact from seed. Very satisfying.
I oooh just seen that we can get a further 10% off GW offer prices. That would take the hellebore offer to just under £10 for 5 orientalis ...... Are we thinking project accepting it will take time or a no go!!
A garden that has matured from young plantings is more to my taste than the instant. Instant is there, like it or not. Waiting for maturity is exciting.

I buy most of my plants from Plant Hunters Fairs. Small nurseries (not GC selling everything but plants) Good prices, less common plants.
Sorry but £16.99 for a perennial which I bought at the same size for £3.50 is not my idea of good household economics.
