Been to riggs at walsden hi giong say it got some bargains 25 alicante tomato plants for 95p keep 6 for my self flog rest at work 60 pence each wot you thing of that Can not see point of growing from seed at them prices

nsbl.... where is that? I'm in London, anywhere near there?

Lancashire mate near Burnley just over hill from where i live in west yorkshire,Do not know if their is any other riggs garden centres about.sorry its not so bad up here you knows Fella

Gordon Riggs has a huge nursery Todmorden way and they are cheaper there still because this is their main base of operations. I prefer this one to the other one because there is so much more under the polytunnels and greenhouses. First year on the allotment my toms took ages to germinate and I went to Riggs and got a small pot of tom seedlings for under a £1 and they filled my greenhouse!

Lucky you. In 'The Smoke' we only have the usual rip off merchants; poor quality plants at sky high prices. Call me mean or what, I always grow from seed, takes a tad longer but I am happy in the knowledge that I have not been ripped off.

Know what you mean... that's if you can find the fruit or veg seedlings in the first place!

People talk of London being a fantastic place, but not when you're a gardener after a bargain (I think anyway)

The best place I've found locally is the Gardening Club in Crews Hill, but that can sometime be hit and miss
