Where can I buy plants during lockdown?

[margot49]

DH and I are looking to spruce up the garden a bit and make the most of self isolation. Is anywhere delivering plants at the moment (perennials if pos)?

I just saw this on another thread!

Ah Errol thanks, that was the link I was thinking about. Some of the growers that sell at RHS Shows are really suffering , there were a couple on local news yesterday.
Off topic, but there is a thing about making bug hotels on their website as well.

I rang a local garden centre, and I'm going to order veg from Rocket Gardens.

I ordered about £20 worth of seeds from Victoriana Nursery Gardens yesterday. I've used them before, they are great. Also do plants plus ready-to-plant veg plants, flowering plants and a massive range of chilli plants and seeds!!!

@sonicshoegazes did you uave a discount code? I have been looking at lazy flora but its £45 per month for 8 plans

J.Parkers is a good online supplier, they had to shut down the website last week due to demand (cos we're all buying plants online ATM) but they've reopened it

I had a delivery from them this week and I’m really disappointed. I bought plugs, so mini plants-summer flowers-half had all the leaves missing and they weren’t in the container, so must have been poorly packed at source. They sent a dispatch note saying the other stuff will arrive later, no idea when, didn’t know this would happen as both plants flower at the same time. They also use Hermes.I won’t be using them again.

I ordered a load of plug plants for my pots, from primrose.co.uk.,
They were bigger than I expected, many already in flower, and very healthy. The order did take a while to come, though, at least 10 days.
