O yea we all  (at least I) do. However, what can one do? This particular plant is only available here and now. If I wait until I have the space, it is gone  :(

I have no picture of my pots but this is what my woodland looked like at the end of March last year.
Five weeks later it looked better - but there is still the junk in the background and a fresh cover of weeds.

So even weeds have their uses Gote? Actually, this doesn't look like junk. More like work-in-progress.  :)

My problem isn't buying plants --it's what to do with a rapidly increasing number of germinated seed pots when the garden is absolutely 'chocka'.

My excuse for the following mess is that it's a work area not work in progress.

Cheers dave.
