Where can I buy.............

lemon balm (a herb) and an aloe vera plant locally? I have been looking round, but any of the garden centres I've been to in Co Antrim don't have any.

Has anyone got any and if so, wher did you get them??

TIA for any replies :)

    hiya, i have seen aloe vera plants in hillside garden centre, it was a couple of months ago though, but im sure they would still have them? They were inside the shop bit, im not sure about the lemon balm though, i think i got some there before a while ago, maybe they just arent selling it yet? hope you find what you are looking for!

    Just sent an email through the site to see if they have any in stock, save me a drive if they don't!
  • I got my aloe vera plant in b and q. think it was about £8. I was looking for ages as well. not sure about lemon balm, might be able to get it there too.

    I've got a couple of very small aloe vera plants - cuttings taken from someone else just a few months ago - but would be happy to pass on a bit if you're willing to "grow yer own". PM me if you're interested.

    That is a pity about that rule! I am sure it has been broken many times?
