I've just finished potting on 176 begonia semperflorens Sahara plug plants.
:o
I ordered them last week from www.jerseyplantsdirect.com and they arrived yesterday. There should have been 160 but there were 16 extra, not bad for £9.99 and NO postage.
They are lovely healthy little plants, I might order something else. (but I need to find more room in the greenhouse first)
They look good. OH has just sent her order in - she can't resist buying plug plants! (And it saves me being dragged round yet another garden centre!)
Thanks for the link.
I find with plugs of things like begonias and lobelia with a little care you can seperate the plants and get many more. I have about sixty form ten plugs of lobelia and 127 from sixty begonia plugs. It just needs care .
This is a job for this week for me. ;D
I've used Jersey plugs for the last two years and never had any problems with them ;D
Still waiting for this years order however!
I order mine from mainly from Gardening Direct....and happy...but why do everyhing start coming in same time ::)..not only their parcels but others too ::)
And this year my heated greenhouse is still full with other things as I'm not been able to overflow into others greenhouses..weather being so cold... >:(
Now I've been lumbered with 1000 plugs, nowhere to put them and more coming.. :o..and they been early this year..normally I would have waited them to arrive over couple of more weeks... ::)
..sods law.. ::)
