New Purchases!!

8 comments


I’m always on the lookout for something “different”……Sometimes the local GC is very "samey!?……Whilst browsing the internet…..as one does….lol…..I cam across a nursery in Kent that had some interesting plants, at equally interesting prices!!….They list plants and you e-mail them what you would like……they let you know if they are available…you phone to pay for them and they tell you when they are in the post. Very simple, nice lady on the end of the phone…..with an apology if they don’t have any on your list…….2/3 days later they arrive, beautifully packed and clearly labelled that they are “plants – handle carefully”….not that the delivery people take too much interest!!!!!!…..decent sized plants too….

Gaura lindheimera “Corries Gold”
Hebe “Louise”…..yes Spritz I got one…lol
Hieracium spilophaeum “Leopard”
Geranium sanguineum “Vision Violet”

also……..

I had the opportunity to purchase some Hedychium at very reasonable prices……they arrived today…“Gold Flame” and “Carnival”.

Didn’t I do well…!!!!!
