Thanks .. The offer is on until the end of the month Kathy , if you remember on the TV add. they were showing some ball shrubs for sale at a reduced price , that's what I went in for but they had sold out of them completely ..

I do as well Carole , it's a wonder my garden isn't several feet higher than anybody else's because of all the pots that eventually get tipped onto it ...LOL...

Me too....I use vast amounts of compost....I bought some of these too Amy...:>)

15 Feb, 2010

 

good bargain..... ive seen these advertised..

15 Feb, 2010

 

Got yourself a good deal there Amy......

15 Feb, 2010

 

good bargain, Amy,I haven't been to B&Q for garden stuff for ages,as its a bit far.I used to buy Westland,but wasn't happy at all. with it last year.
I think the formula must have changed,as it seemed to have no substance to it,and if it got dry,it was hard to re wet.It all ended up on the borders instead,which was ok,so I tried Wick's own,and really liked it,plus its very near,which is even better,petrol wise.:o))

Are you pleased with it Motinot ? .. I haven't tried this yet ....
Thanks Holly . Dd , it was a good deal , I hope this will be alright Bloomer I shall be let down if it's not , I don't like it if it dries hard quickly .... we haven't a wick's near us , I will remember that for another time as one or two people are saying they like it from there .......

Crikey, that was a good buy Amy....I bought some last week £3.99 at our garden centre and thought that was reasonable....quite a good mix though....hardly any twiggy bits or coconut fibre...:o)

Hubby took me to B&Q today Amy after his night shift, got my 10 bags nearly used one this afternoon pricking out seedlings :-) they had some black hollyhock in there too was it you that had bought one that was rotten ?

Good for you Kathy , it dosn't take long to use a bag does it ? are you pleased with it ? I haven't tried it yet ~~
Yes I did get a Black Hollyhock that was rotten but not from B&Q it was from Wilko ...

16 Feb, 2010

 

Yes really nice compost no big twiggy bits like some have, couldn't see what the hollyhock were like as they were in a cardboard box but had quite a few nice perennials, resisted the urge.

16 Feb, 2010

 

Amy/Kathy: Any idea how long this offer is on for. I'm getting temped, just that our nearest B&Q is about 10 miles away and I dont want to waste my time if the offer is ending - I'll have a look on their website.

Thanks Kathy , thats good to know , i'm still using up my old lot.....

Dawn when I ask they said until the end of the month but I suspect that depends on how much stocks they have ...good luck !!

17 Feb, 2010

 

Thanks Amy, I've been on their website and they have some at my nearest store, so I'll go tomorrow. Thanks for the tip off. x
