Best Place To Get Plug Plants From....?

[Two_Sheds]

I grow my own, mostly. I have self-seeded limnanthes, calendula, and nemophila on the allotment which I split up and transplant at home.

I sow trays of other annuals eg. nicotiana at home.

I bought some osteospermum plants last year at the market (£1 each) and trays of nearly dead dianthus from B&Q for 25p, and have taken cuttings from those.

Hopefully this summer's bedding won't cost much at all.

I get my summer bedding from this company. You need plenty of pots & space to pot them up.

I've used these as well and always found the plants very good

What are you wanting? A friend of mine got some very good plug plants off ebay last year which did very well. I've used T&M in the past and was very disappointed with the service and quality but it's been a while so they could have got better.

I'm not sure what to get- I'd like to have larger choice. Pansy, begonia, bussy lizzies etc are all fine species, but I'd like something a little different.

I'd like two different species of two different colours. I'd like to plant drifts of white and red.

Which online retailer do you get your summer bedding plug plants from?

I've looked at all the big hitters sites (T&M, Dobbies, etc) but there seems to be a lack of choice- they all seem to have pretty much the same varieties.

I'd rather order online as it is more economical than buying from a local garden centre. I can get 100 miniplugs for £10, whereas in the stores I can only get trays of 20 for £4.
