Plants sold in pots can be planted at any time of the year. Garden
centres tend to concentrate on the plants in bloom at the time, which
makes sense as that's the way most people buy. Two ways around 1) visit
the garden centre at intervals during the year, buying as you go, so you
don't end up with a garden that is in flower for just one month of the
year b) look up in gardening books (pubic library or Waterstones) for
plants you like, then look for them in the less obvious bits of the
garden centre.

Try High Trees on Old Otley Road between Cookridge and the airport for a
better range of plants than most garden centres.



Thanks for the sound advice Kay.

I'll give high trees a visit over the w/e
