Got some bargains there Pixi

You definitely grabbed some excellent bargains there Pixi,

I use to go to B&Q or Homebase and lookout for damaged plants or split bags of compost etc and asked if I could purchase with a large reduction on price.

yep :)
Doesnt harm to ask eh? :)

I am trying not to JUST drop in to B&Q. In Scotland the season is so short we will be into Autumn in a few weeks. But.......we are expecting some good weather and today was beautiful. I don't have a lot of space for new plants Pixi. It has slowed me down a bit!!!!

Omg dont mention the A word! lol or W ;)
I have little space really left but i want it crammed full of beauty :)

Love the plants and the nail varnish x

B and Q always seems to have sale bargains and have had a fair few myself this Summer ( if I can call it such). Watch that nemesia, Pixi; my Dobbies bargain one lost all the flowers overnight, courtesy of evening foraging by slugs/snails.Those are very pretty snapdragons, and Suki sleeps just like our Mojo in the cute feet-up position.

lol Mr Hywel :)
Thanks Nana :))))
I got one at Dobbies TB its still flowering well. But this one looks a bit ill! lol I love SNapdragons have a few already but not these colours ..hpope they survive :)
