Title: Potential goldmine!
Post by: aquilegia on January 20, 2004, 18:10:26
I've just been searching the net for wildflower plants and seeds. I found dandelion plants on sale for £1 each.

I must go and count just how much the weeds in my garden are worth!

NO!  Seriously?  Bl**dy hells bells, as a club, we should all get together and count up our ...ahem....weeds.  As a group, we could be worth a fortune!   ;D

I`ve had some very interesting plants grow from the bird seed that falls to the ground!  ;)  I had to rush out to the garden late last summer and uproot one particular beauty because I`d just seen it on tv, let`s just say it wasn`t entirely legal  :-[  ;D

Now that wouldn't be the same one I got from my bird seed would it Sue?  ??? They do say it can help with arthritis but hey who wants to smoke it in gaol!! :o

As for dandelions we should promote them as pet food too Aquilegia - guinea pigs and rabbits love them! Now what were  you going to call your company? How about 'Fields of Gold'  8)
I think that suggestion should allow me a 10% share in the company don't you? I could also supply you with plenty of new stock when yours runs out.  :P  Cheers Eileen.
