o.uk...

Just bough a Paul Scarlet rambling rose for 99p in my local 99p store.
At
least that's what it said and looked like in the photo on the carboard
label. Admittedly, not the greatest quality rose, having lied around in
a
warm store in dark packaging with a few leaves and thin stems with no
chlorophyl, bur we can soon put that to rights. Too good a bargain to
ignore considering many nurseries would charge upwards of £10 for such
a
plant. Now potted up, so I shall wait and see.

Good luck and do report back. I bought a pack to grow mushrooms from
the
£1 shop and they were useless.

Has anyone bought stuff from these shops and had a successful outcome?

Bought a rose from Wilkinsons once, almost dead. It really annoys me
how
shops don't care at all.
Anyway she was called Night Queen, she is still alive but struggles.
If plants were animals it would be illegal.


Thanks, Christina! I won't bother with them again.


You should.


Why? I bought stuff that didn't work at all. Yours is puny ...
