We have lots of well grown plants for sale. We use expensive compost and fertilizer and the plants are well watered (a monotonous job). They are also reasonably priced compared with some other nurseries and garden centres. But there are few people buying them the moment and I’m baffled. The weather is fine and the soil is not too dry for planting.  I’m blaming the supermarkets and the chain DIY stores where you can buy cheap but dry or dead plants which are displayed so that customers have to walk by them at the entrance. It seems to me that the supermarkets trying to cash in with things they know little about. Are there experienced staff to offer help and advice for the novice purchaser? I doubt it. So why are so many people buying these poor offerings? Is it because its convenient? Or maybe its because they are cheap? I wish I knew. I’d welcome your comments.
