I have just bought some Poundland special rasps and black currant bushes but the final place I want them to be will not be available for a couple of weeks due to building work at the bottom of my garden, should I leave them in their original packaging, plant them in tubs then transplant them later or plant them in a temporary position in the garden and move them later, hopefully they will be more successful then the last lot i purchased they are already shooting green shoots?
thank you ;D
I'd take them out of their packaging, soak the roots for a couple of days, and then heel them in, using a well dug piece of ground.
They should be OK, and even if you do lose one or more, the price was right!
Expect nothing next year, but the year after next...
thank you that is what i shall do cheers
I want to get some goosegog bushes to plant out this autumn, but can't find them anywhere. Any ideas?
I live in Berks by the way.
i got two lovely looking ones from poundland in slough! try it, after all thery're only a pound each. also picked up blackcurrant and raspberry, looking good so far been in a few days and already got growth!
bought some rasps and currants this time last year.
have had a couple of dozen raspberries this year ;D
v. impressed for a pound ;D
pics of them taken this May:
ah now I was told that i would get no fruit the first year, yet I have still had a little harvest of late raspberries!
Soz, when I saw "Poundland" I didn't associate it with the "cheapo everything for a quid shop" and thought it might have been some local shop somewhere ::)
I will certainly give them a go this weekend. Ta muchly :D
you could try buckingham nurseries - I've bought from them a couple of times and they have a reasonable selection of fruite trees.
