i called in a second hand shop on the way home i was looking for a table for shed on allotment ,i got 2 for £5.50p..came home,re potted my peppers,courgette and tomato..

these are the 2 tables i bought, as you can see they are needed more in our spare room at the moment..

the white troughs are polystyrene i bought last week 25p each, store closing..i got 10 of them

What you need is an enormous greenhouse with room to build a small house in it.

Yes, i agree i think you could do with a whole Nursery to yourself for
all those lovely Seedlings. What a lovely big Garden Centre, seem to have
quite a good selection of Plants and Shrubs including those Cat Pots
they are lovely. Did you buy any Joanella? Just love your Lucky Bamboo
it must have been lucky for you, as you got a few bargains. "Good Luck
with all your Seedlings!!! Nice Blog. : -)))

I like those little cat pots, my youngest has one and I`ve threatened to kidnap it..lol... Thats a lot of seedlings Joanella you are going to be really busy with the planting out. Tell me how you get away with using your spare room ?..I get moaned at in the winter because of the amount of plants that I bring indoors.....

27 Feb, 2010

 

I gave up using the spare room for seedlings due to the cat thinking it would be fun to stick a paw in a pot . . . many times . . . : o )

27 Feb, 2010

I`m so glad I`m not the only one with a house full of seed trays Joanella. At the moment they seem to be everywhere. I liked that wooden plant too but the price...oooh forget it !!! Even tough I work in one I still like to look around other garden centres, there`s always something that I find I like. :o)
