I've bought a small pot of coriander plants from Sainsburys, the
type that comes pre-potted and growing, designed primarily for
use as an ingredient.

I don't know about you, but I find most of those pots purchased in a
super-market are so root bound they barely make it through a week.
There simply isn't enough soil for them to thrive. The only ones
which I've had survive were the ones I'd replanted immediately. I
have one sage plant in my home intensive care unit for plants.
Determined am I to get the poor thing to survive...just to prove I
can! :-)


Oh well, my little pot sits with shrivelled stems and leaves drooped
over the sides. It's dead as a dodo and lasted I guess 2 weeks from
when it left the shop.

Waste of money... (
