My bank holiday job is to put together my container display. I have my pots and my plants (hostas, hydrangeas, lily of the valley, and astrantia if that makes a difference) and now need to buy some compost. I know about the tricks of using broken crocks and cardboard in the bottom of the pots but I will need some growing medium!
Please can anyone advise the best value place to buy compost? I looked in Aldi this morning and they had bags of standard compost at £3.49 for 40 litres, or seaweed enriched 'premium' for £4.49. B&Q Verve compost is £6 for 50l, three bags for £15. Are there any hidden gems that I am missing, or is the cheaper stuff a false economy?
