We made ?78 on the plant stall at the church fete yesterday - took me
all evening to thaw out, we were in shade and a wind tunnel!! Only
bought three plants, and they were ones I took pity on at the end when
we reduced them to get rid.


We made 45 quid last year, and that was when I wasn't given enough time to
be prepared for it. This year I have a /lot/ of baby fuchsia and quite
happy busy lizzies and a few petunias, so at least there will be some things
that are flowering at the right time.

And last year i had a whole table of tomato plants, and about 5 of them
sold! This year I have a load of /very/ healthy looking (but really
desperate for a potting on!!) GD tomatoes, and a couple of more unusual
ones. What i need to make sure I do is get it all on display, but I have
ballet until 10.45 and the fete starts at 11! I may be selling whilst
wearing a leotard this year!

(btw, anyone want to come and buy some plants off me in 2 weeks? All for a
good cause! Or anyone in the area got plants to spare ... ? :-)

I think there was a tray of tomato plants left............. and a couple
of euphorbias, oh and some primroses seedlings;-)


Feel free to drop your primroses off. ;-)
