They will recover and stand up when the frost has gone, biggest problem I saw was in Tuesday at a local auction where they sell plants etc. Several sellers had sent in tomato plants, and some of these had been on the stand by 7 am. By the time they came to be sold a good half in each tray were a fetching shade of black. I think they made about 20p for a tray of 12, worth it if you could even only save 2 or 3. Got a Magnolia Stelata for £7:50, at the local garden centre that afternoon they were £24 each. There were five and one had a lot more flower buds that the others so I made sure I get the first choice. others went for between £7 and £8:50. Someone got a real bargain, a tray of French marigold, all plug pots, for £1:50, estimated number of plants 550! Mike www.british-naturism.org.uk |

Natalie wrote in message ... Where's the auction Mike? Does it happen every week? Please post details. Market Rasen, Lincs, and it happens every Tuesday starting at 10:30. I must admit that I came home this week with a couple of cordylines for 80p each, 5 x 6 polyanthus at £1 per six, 5 million bells petunias for 40p each, large variegated Arum italiacum for £1:40, echinops, doronicum and Pyrethrum for 50p each, last week two boxes of 5 perennials, not named but look to be campanula, knipofia and not too sure of the other as yet for £1:50 each box. similar boxes went this week for £1. They also sell produce and game, and I can get cheap pheasant in season there. Mike www.british-naturism.org.uk |
