OH came home from work yesterday with 2 redcurrant and 1 blackcurrant plantlets. Can't call them bushes just yet because they're only about 6-8" tall from the top of the rootball. They do have a few tiny green shoots on them.
Anyway, she said she found them in our local Pound Shop, obviously at a pound each. Is this a good price?
The only problem I can see with them is that they don't have any identification on them as regards what type of red/blackcurrant they are
Aldi are doing 3 plants for £1.99 starting tomorrow.
(and seeds at 29p)
This has already been mentioned here.

They ARE good value! Avery labels of same size are much more expensive, brilliant dtw, that's saved me a few bob :)
OH bought me two in the 99p shop, not sure how much they were ;D ,they were blackcurrent and blueberry. ;D ;D ;D
Almost as cheap as taking my own, but at least I get to know the variety!
:)
been after blueberries for this year, just managed to get two for 4.00 each from wilkies, not a bad price and good size bushes, still no luck on whitecurrants, will keep looking ;D
