Mail order vegetables
I dread the thought of trying to send Tomato plants by post........
last Year I got several very good tomato plants at a local car boot sale for 20p each and a choice of around 6 varieties, first class plants, and there's no way I would grow them for that price. Cabbage sprouts cauliflowers and leeks , no problem to send by post, but lettuce (except early season) would be to soft. Then there would be the cost, 4 tomatoes in 3inch pots would cost around £2.50 plus the cost of the box and the cost of the plants, so around £5.00 to £6.00 for 4 plants.

Dobies: http://www.dobies.co.uk/cffiles/resu...08&cat_ca_ref= 527 Took me about 5 minutes to find. note it's a framed site, so this breaks the frames. But a GBP7 ish for 5 plants (plus postage I guess) it's an expensive way to get such easily grown plants. -- Chris French and Helen Johnson, Leeds urg Suppliers and References FAQ: http://www.familyfrench.co.uk/garden/urgfaq/index.html |

Unfortunately the site seems to be partially broken at the moment - can't get the details of individual items. Now all I need is one which will supply a 'variety box' - I'll have one yellow cherry tom, one red cherry tom, one yellow pepper, one red pepper, a cucumber, a courgette, ......... This is the way you would shop at a garden centre and allows you to grow a variety of vegetables without having to buy about 500 seeds or 50 plants. Perhaps this is a business opportunity? :-) Cheers Dave R |
