Title: Don't forget to go to Wilkinsons!
Post by: piglit on January 14, 2005, 17:48:34
I know it has been said before and doubtless will be again but I nipped out in my lunch hour and they are starting to get all their plants in.  Had to be very firm with myself and only bought a fig, olive and gooseberry, elephant garlic and rubarb.  Only £14 for all those goodies!  And as the plants have just come in they are all looking very healthy with new buds etc.  They are shortly getting asparagus (£1.49) and artichokes and other delights.  And for the flower lovers among you there are lilies (2 for £1.45) amongst other things.  Just wanted to make sure that you all remembered to visit! And no I don't work for them...

Big hooray for Wilko!!

Have Wilkinsons got their asparagus in??

I've recently been  and bought seeds 3 for 2, shallots, elephant garlic, raspberry, blackberry,seed tray modules, fleece, weed suppressant fabric, and more besides...

I LOVE WILKINSONS ;D and as someone already mentioned, the plants are beautifully healthy as they are new produce...

Go on , you know you want to ;)
