      Yeah thanks VC, been on the lookout for cheap blackberry bushes. Also noticed that The Factory Shop have fruit bushes in now, my local had raspberry, blackcurrant, blueberry and gooseberry. Approx £2.49 or 2 for £4. Had to resist buying any of them as I've got more than 1 of each and rapidly running out of room.
      Remember it's just a bad day, not a bad life 😁

              Darn it - I listened.

              As it happens that I was at work today today till 2.30 right next to aldi I popped in. There weren't any bushes there - darn it they'd all been snapped up.

              But I asked and the staff hadn't put them out yet., thinking that they were for another day. Whoopi an entire crate of bushes.

              I did manage to show restraint and resisted buying the whole lot

              Ah well another plot redesign coming up.

                I knew you'd weaken
                Do you know what named varieties they had? Aldi is a good way from me - so I need to know whether its worth the journey

                  Each pack contains 3 of the same plants so it is not mix and match

                        I am starting to hate Aldi, I only wanted some broccoli for the rabbits....

                        Now I have a pack of each of them to plant and no broccoli as they had run out of what I went in for
                        Living off grid and growing my own food in Bulgaria.....

                          I bought two raspberries, two goosberries and one each of the rest. So that's 21 bushes to find space for.

                          Now, where would 14 fruit trees go?

                            I emailed Aldi to ask but it appears that they don't have a clue.
                            Response 1

                            Thank you for contacting Aldi Customer Services.
                            *
                            Unfortunately I cannot find any further information regarding the fruit trees.
                            *
                            For your reference Aldi provide a 60 day inspection period on all our products, if you simply change your mind or the item is not suitable in which customers are given the opportunity to exchange or refund an item under our no quibble guarantee with proof of purchase as long as you return it within the 60 day period, with your receipt and its original packaging.
                            Response 2 seems to be taken from their contract with the supplier


                            Thank you for taking the time to contact us.

                            Please find below the required information.
                            2 year old grafted trees.

                            1.2m minimum height up to 1.8m.

                            Side branches.

                            Trees to be root balled in green bags with a mix of moist peat.

                            Trees to be feathered, bent and tied instead of trimmed where possible.

                            Trees are under no circumstances held up and supported with canes.


                            I hope this information has provided useful.
