I have just taken a look at Peter nyssen aym, and there certainly is an impressive range of plants, dahlias and others at very reasonable prices, but the post & packaging price of £19.00 for the Channel Islands is ridiculous and so unfair. I will take a look at Rose Cottage - fingers crossed for a more realistic p&p charge.
Ah Dove, I have just this minute been lusting over the Sarah Raven cataologue. Went to visit her garden last year its gorgeous! Havent bought anything as yet.
Aym280 you're very welcome. I've branched out into smaller nurseries and off the track places. I had some really horrendous deliveries from the so called top supplier last year. Mouldy, rotten and completely dead on arrival. I'm still siting out refunds and replacements now. I bought from other suppliers and smaller companies and the plants were so much better and well packed. So this year the big lot are out and trying new places is in.
Good on you for the loud dahlias, should find you on satellite maps this year then. ?
Thats a bit of a pain with the p&p Guernsey, hope you find a better deal.
You guys are making me feel very guilty with your dahlia talk. I got bored of mine last year and left all the tubers lying around the garden to rot into the soil. Still get a pang when I catch sight of one lying in the mud, slug chewed
I've used Rose cottage for spring bulbs several times and think they are quite reasonably priced.
I've made two orders with companies who make spring deliveries. It's good because you don't have have to pay straight away and can keep adding to your order if you have no self control. Asters, centaurea, campanula and hesperantha on the list and looking at some heleniums and white eupatoriums.

That makes a big difference then. I couldn't find mention of that when I looked.

Aym,why don't you try Dobies?
Mr. Fothergills have probably got some, but I haven't got a catalogue. Try on line.
Rose Cottage Plants have 217 different types of Dahlia, surely something for everyone.
No they don't pay me, but I do think they are excellent.
When you don't even know who's in the team
S.Yorkshire/Derbyshire border
I do hope everyone will post pictures of the plants they've ordered once they're in bloom!

Aym re dahlia platinum blonde, Sarah Raven has but delivery late February which is still early to when you need to plant?

More seeds and some perennials from Dorset Perennials. Has anyone used them? I used as they had a lovely geranium which I saw on Pinterest ?
It is called pinwheel.

I've just ordered 15 Lilium "Elodie" which will go into pots.
