Thanks Paul. I have had a follow up email from Pottertons about after care for the plants … so useful. Amazing service!

Thanks Julia, I recommend them.
Thank you Klahanie. Not sure whether Leptospermum will survive here either … the seller said they keep theirs in the greenhouse!

I agree Sheila! I sent for some perennials a few weeks back which are still in the greenhouse waiting for milder weather!

What a treat Sheila, to unwrap these. And not far from me, Caistor...:))

Thanks Janey 🙂. I did wonder whether they might be in your area, and their prices seem very competitive. One plant I bought for £4 was £18 in the Hayloft catalogue!

Really? Good grief, thank goodness you bought from Pottertons. Caistor itself is very pretty, built on a high ridge, I think it must be one of the heights, so steep roads with quaint cottages and a library/ cafe with book rooms that Sarah Beeny helped to convert.. x

Leafy lanes of Lincolnshire. Somerby nearby too where Sir Alfred Lord Tennyson was born. x

I'm not surprised you're delighted, Sheila! A great purchase selection here. It's very exciting now we're into Spring, half way through February already!
Caistor, one of my regular places to visit with my job, Janey. I've posted some pics in the past.

Thank you Kate 🙂. The little Hepatica already has two pretty blue flowers, making me smile 🙂.

Some of the plants that I have just unwrapped from Pottertons Nursery ... they were exceptionally will packaged and still moist after their journey from Caistor, Lincs.
They include Phlox douglasii Crackerjack, Lewisia, Hepatica, Leptospermum, Phlox Chattahoochee, and three Androsace sarmentosa (out of the picture). I you like small, hardy perennials, I recommend them.
Isn't it great to be thinking of Spring?!
