Plants

I took a trip last week down to deepest Kent to buy some plants for the St. Peter's pond garden.  It was quite exciting being the person who had the choice to put in whatever they want into someone else's garden but also nice just to wander around a wholesale nursery without all the tatt that there is at a retail nursery.  I chose some Ligularias, Bergenias, Astilbes and Deschampsia for the swale area as well as some Heucheras and Lavenders for another part of the garden.

They once got 27 people in an original mini and I was beginning to think that I might have to perform a similar feat to get all of the plants into my little Polo!  The plants have all been planted and I will post some pictures when I have them.

    Hi Paul,
    It was Palmstead Nurseries in Wye near Ashford, very helpful and friendly. You have to register on their website (Palmstead.co.uk) and when you receive an email from them it confirms your registration and you have access to their wholesale prices,
    Good luck,
    Neil.
