I would appreciate it if some member`s could recommend where to buy deceit plants, at a decent price and reasonable delivery date. Plants eg Hardy Fuchsia`s and Bamboo`s. Last year i ordered some hardy Fuchsia`s it was a nightmare this space is to small to describe what happened

Local nurseries are the best place, there's always someone there to ask questions like what position, what soil type, how big the plants grow, do they need sun/shade. You always get good service from the local nurseries rather than the big chains as they rely on repeat business so want you to be happy with your purchases and advice they give so that you go back and buy more. Not only that, you'll tell someone about it, they'll visit there, they'll tell someone else how good it was and so on...

Some B & Q stores have a great range of plants. I bought two specimen bamboo there at a price I have never seen matched elsewhere either locally or online. At the time they were having a period where they were discounting the price of plants.

Where I am B & Q are doing 15% off plants - it lasts until Monday 18th May up here. If there is one near you it might be worth checking it out as I think it might be a national discount.
