Allotments 4 All

There's a Garden centre near me called Rivendell which are selling all thier bulbs at half price!! Now i know its a "bit" late but is it TOO LATE?? 
Thanks

Good spot Rivendell, used to be the cheapest place if it is in Bold Heath. Buy the bulbs and what we do is plant them in pots rather than straight in the soil. Then plant out in flower, in Spring.
We bought 10 packs of bulbs for £4 at a place near us last week.

It's never too late as long as the bulbs are healthy. They're a long-term investment, so why not buy them when they're cheap?

Hi Palustris
Yes (Bold Heath) it USED to be very well priced, but it's grown MUCh bigger and so have the prices!!
they seem to think of a number, double it and add ten, then double it again!! WOWEE, they'e astronomical now!!

Don't they just. It was after the original owner sold it to North West Farmers that prices went through the glass roof. I first started going when it was a single polytunnel in his father's farm yard. Ah memories. 10 shrubs for £8.90 eh?
