I've got farsands of 'em!
I've pricked out hundreds, just about run out of space without killing off some grass and run out of compost.
What do I do with the little plantlets I still have left??
They are - Sweet William, Petunias, Lobelia, Alyssum and French Marigolds.
P.S. I have already given away as many as possible without causing offence!

Put a little trestle table at the end of your driveway with the spare plants on... and a sign saying 20p each - in aid of "choose your own" Charity.
Leave a moneybox there for the change.
People are generally honest and will drop their coins in in return for a couple of bedding plants.

Or you may find your local primary school can use them, great for science and nature projects.

D'yer think he would mind getting the bus to work? On a serious note, maybe the local school would take them as they are and let the kids do the pricking out. I know that if you lived here, my grantygs school would bite your arm off.

Maybe your local charity shop would like some. I give mine to ours and they sell well.

Hi Suzi You are not too far from me! I love sweet william but have not been able to get any! If the seeds come out I do ask but I probably just miss buying them! Ah well never mind keep trying. Another thought I am going to the TOGs convention can you keep them until then? Love TT xxxx
