Summer bedding plants

Hello, silly question really but I haven’t got anyone else to ask. Do you think £25 is too much to pay for:
12 busy lizzie plug plants
12 lobelia plug plants
20 French marigolds?

In years previous times I got them from a car boot sale stand or somewhere like The Range and I would pay about £4 a tray. But I can’t get anywhere this year so I’m stuck buying them online.

what do you think?

I’d say it’s about double what you’d pay in. Supermarket but if you can’t get anywhere then you have no choice

still worth it for some pretty summer pots 🥰

Are there any garden centres you can get to? I got a tray of 12 really well-grown lobelia the other day for about £4.

That garden centre is famously good value, though.

I find Gardening Express to be very reasonable and good with the packaging and delivery, when l buy online
