What do you mean by top post?

Posting your answer *before* the question rather than after it. ie at
the top rather than below.

Oh I see sorry about that.

We all had to learn and you've got the hang of it now. Have you seen
the post that appears every week called "abc for newcomers"? Lots of
useful tips to help you get the most out of the group.

Where do you live? I will declare a bias here and now and suggest (as a
nurseryman's wife) that you look for genuine nurseries, small, family run,
rather than large garden centres which have large overheads and have to
charge larger prices, in the main.


And join your local gardening club. There's bound to be people there who
have cuttings to spare or will help you with advice and where to go
locally for plants etc.

Once my seeds get going I may be able to offer others on the group
seedlings if anyone is interested. (cosmos, hollyhock, aster, )
I have a morillo cherry tree available for a swap if anyone is
interested.

Thanks for your assistance.




I believe the BBC are attempting a dot of plant swap at their Gardener
world live show later in the year.

How the heck they are going to keep tabs on 4 thousand plants, some of
indeterminate identity or viability and stop some people bringing stuff
like chives or cerinthe and trying to get Hoboellia or Acers in exchange
I don't know!

Still you could take down some of your excess seedlings and see if
they'll let you have a shrub in exchange.
