    Some nice stock in Airside...had a quick look around this morning.Lots of shrubs and small trees on sale


    Picked up some Anemone plants there a few weeks ago to add in with the ones I planted last year..

    1 lite pots and priced at 3 euro 40 cents each.

    Scanned through the till at 2 euro 10 cents...happy with that.:)

    I dont know about 3 weeks being too long....But if you need to store it,then unroll the rolls and lay them on a flat surface.Place some cardboard or some Mypex weed barrier underneath them too.

    Lightly spray the turf lawn with a watering hoze to keep them damp/most.:)


    But ideally you should lay it/install it asap after buying it.

    Shame this post wasnt edited before i drove all the way out to B & Q for the half price trees and shrubs,asked the employee in the garden centre area about the half price deal and she said theres no such deal.She ran to get a scanner to prove it and came back and scanned them and guess what :eek:......me then melted into the background :)

    In casd anyone is planning on getting this bargain, I was at the Tallaght branch today where the entire garden centre area is closed due to high winds. Hopefully this might save someone else a wasted journey.

    They're running it in the UK too, I bought two bamboos for £40 each and got a third one free. I was very pleased - £120 worth for £80. :D
    It'll be the cheapest item free though, so if you go and buy 2 expensive plants and then a cheap packet of pansies, it'll be the pansies that are free and it won't be such a good deal then.

    It's ended now.

    Your safety and the publics in mind in fairness.:)

    Homebase also do the same on very gusty/windy days.

    Id rather be dissapointed about missed a plant bargain or 2 then going into the outdoor gardening sector on such a windy day and never making it back home alive,due to being struck by a large falling object.:(

    Oh absolutely, not complaining about that, just hoping to alert someone like me who had seen this and planned to make their way out just for this offer.
