Hi Philippa - that would be great - I'll find out how it works! (Here is a photo of the prototype for the planters - they'll be waterproofed and lined too. Being made by one of the volunteers. I think they look not bad for a few quid, what do you think?)
Yes, that's exactly right! I think the aim is to get one of these (at least!) to every garden that has been destroyed. That's in addition to all our donated plants, and the plants that the local volunteers will be growing on from our seed donations. Seems like a good plan to me...
And Artjak, thanks for your PM, I don't know why it was rejecting you! I've replied, let me know if you don't get it.
There are several Gardening Clubs I believe in that area, so that may be one way to arrange distribution. I've got the various phone numbers from the freebie Somerset Country Gardener magazine and as I live in Bath, you can count me in.

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

That's quite big.
If I'd been flooded and had one of those I'd fill it with rootings and cuttings, cadged or donated by generous people and grow them on for the future

They look wonderful; what a brilliant idea. Tell us where to send the money
Rosie, I've PMd you

Lizzie, any info you can get hold of, would be good.
