Look out for the bargains
bargains galore to be had everyone In the garden centres
this mornng I got 50 % off compost because bags were torn....that's usual. You should always get money off torn bags.
however, the centre was selling off plants, the usual 50% off,,etc. but I haggled to end up with 2 £19 specimens for £4 each, and a few £9. 99 for £2 and £1. All perfectly good in 3 and 5 litre pots
there are excess stocks of plants ...avoid the basement/clearance sections and go for the usual display specimens and ask for discounts 
I will be taking someone tomorrow for more bargains.....£50 tree ferns down to £10???

I know what I'm doing this weekend
Verdun, what GC did you get these amazing bargains from please. I'm going Cornwall tomorrow for the weekend and could manage a slight detour.
Might pop into the Par branch that's the nearest to where I'm going. As for haggling I'm a bit shy but OH is fearless so does it for me. In need of some more orange perennials for front garden, and there's a blue hardy geranium I'm after . Thanks Verdun.
Got a couple of those best geum ever for me flowers for months. Need some more rudbeckias or heliniums .?
Our local Wyevale had some beautiful conifers on 50% off - all perfectly healthy.
