I'm going to have another moan: I planted these over 2 months ago, and whilst I have plenty of leaves there is nothing in my pots that resembles an actual flower. I don't get it, everything else is blooming wildly but not these.

On that basis I recommend you save your money if you see them.

I saw some bulbs only this week (full price, £1) but looked at the planting time period and realised it was well passed and so did not bother.

You would have been in time so it is disappointing.

These are from yesterday. Trongate and Union Street, Glasgow:
Tropics Original Chip Sprinkle Paprika & Tomato

These were in Trongate. Assume these bend when you sneeze at them, but good for picnics - Silver Service Cutlery 30 Pack, 50p

The chip sprinkle looks interesting, although probably choc full of E numbers . Anyone actually tried it?

Yes Loulou the Tuc boxes are £1, handy sized little packets for lunchboxes. I will keep a look out for the Imperial Leather sprays thank you.

Has anyone tried the Rock soaps? They are in strawberry, lemon, coconut and more I can't remember offhand. Think they must be new in, not seen them in ours before.

Pots and Baskets collection - mine are *just* beginning to flower, so I hope you are starting to have some joy with them! They are SO slow - bulbs I bought in the 50p sale are blooming merrily whereas as you say, with this one its mostly pots of green. Such a pity because the mix included is such a good one.

It sounds like what they put on chips in Taco Bel which tastes pretty good. Will definitely be picking some up if they have it here

I went into Taco Bell after visiting Union Street!!

Didn't even occur to me the Chip Sprinkle could be similar to the coating they have on their Mexican Chips (think that's what they're called). Definitely going to buy some! Their chips are amazing.

The only one of mine that is beginning to flower looks like a lanky weed. I wanted big fat flowers, as on the picture. I feel embarrassed having these out front in highly decorative terracotta pots!
