Glad I'm not the only frootloop that offers to water plants or points out the obvious abuse and neglect that goes in your average wilkos.  ;)

Mortality

Shhh..im desperately trying to tell myself that I have everything I need now  ;D
Please don't be offended by my nickname 'Mortality'
As to its history it was the name of a character I played in an online game called 'Everquest'
The character 'Mortality Rate' was a female Dark Elf Necromancer, the name seemed apt at the time and has been used alot by me over the years.

Have you noticed the very fancy slate plant labels ( so Sarah Raven) but very unfancy price?

saddad

Yes... I'll have some of them What was it @£5 for six? I was busy with OH buying bulbs and plants but managed three of the "Collections" so got 18 packets of seeds for £5... some will be underweight compared with normal packs but fine for the numbers anyone actually wants...  ;D

I went yesterday and picked up rooster, charlotte and kestrel spuds, garlic, some seeds and a dahlia. Oh and some some of the lovely terracota pins and labels. Didn't see the slate ones so may need to go back again...

I think only 2 of my seed potatoes were hens egg size :) but they look ok, tiny little green shoots on all.
