I have 40 pots each with 10 bulbs in. A neighbour has totally concreted his garden and when I was walking past he asked me if I wanted them or they would go in the bin. well couldnt let them go in the bin.

I have been known to stop and ask other gardeners for plants from their rubbish piles. freebies/ recycling what ever one wishes to call it :o)

For some of your amazing rescues, a better word might be 'resuscitation' ;o)

Sold 20 pots yesterady at £1 a pot. The money is going to the local hospice. The neighbour says he will pass things on if they are going to help the hospice as his mum was cared for there.

I regularly propagate plants for sale and 50% is donated to the hospice.
