Not sure what half of them are I know I have some London pride, Welsh poppy lemon thyme, oragano but the rest mystery to me
I put a add on freecycle asking for garden plants and a nice lady was very kind as she was changing her garden around got to go back on Tuesday to pick some more up :)

Now that's a good idea! I must do that when I come back from my holiday! Clever girl, @Leeski !

Please upload your photos in a new thread and let's have some fun!

Return for her kindness said I would mow her lawn and give her a hand moving some planters :)

£4 for this blueberry Really lovely. Thought it was not AGM and not worth buying. Held out for a long time until it went down to £3.99. Look at the size of those

Sunshine Blue - very sweet and big

Pieris is very happy! So you know how much I have spent on metered water!:cry::cry:

Now you're talking! Some goodies there! I would not put that big clump of grass like plant next to the fork to the ground though. It might spread like wildfire. I would contain it in a container and see if I like the flowers first. Can't quite pin a name to it. I think it has brown feather flower at the end. I could be wrong.

@Leeski very good plants.:)

@alp lovely pics especially the blueberries.:)

Thank you. I have found that the pink blueberries are delicious too. They had 3 on sale for £3.99, but I have already had 2. So tempting.
