I've been buying my seeds and summer bulbs for a few weeks now. Trouble is trying to find somewhere to put them all. As my son keeps telling me You don't need any more. Oh yes I do

They were the other week. I was tempted but told myself no as I have enough but then a few days later I looked again and they were back at full price. So I bought some x

@tasiatasiana I've always wanted to try grow some sort of fruit /veg but we have lots of wildlife mainly squirrels as we have park behind the garden . Don't think they'll survive  I'm looking forward to you posting how it goes tho I love strawberries x

@dixiedixieland245 I grew some in hanging baskets last summer. This year I plan to get some troughs and grow cascading tomatoes in the baskets. I'm planning on growing more fruit and veg this year too. I grew these peppers from shop bought ones in my conservatory. Placed them outside during the day. Do you have anywhere you could grow some inside x

@tasiatasiana that's great . Strawberries or cherry tomatoes in hanging baskets is great idea  I don't really have the space indoors thats why I don't really buy seeds . Don't really have the space for them plus not sure they'll survive around my toddler x

I hit the jackpot at Lowe's this past Sunday. Their Valentine's plants are already discounted and I scored 2 fairly big (pint-sized pots) for $2. 49 each! Very healthy plants marked down, i guess, because they were done blooming.
