    Even at full price Wilko's tend to be better value than places like B&Qand really good quality

    Their plants are better too, they tend to sell quite quickly so do not get as stressed as the ones they sell in B & Q.

    When you buy plants always look at the bottom of the pot, if the roots have formed around the outside of the bottom of the pot, be wary, they have been in the pots too long and will suffer when you plant them out. I have a friend who would play Hamlet in a garden centre if she found plants like that, she would always say the had not been displayed properly, new stock having been sold before the old stock had been cleared. She would also complain if she found plants that had not been watered properly......often the case at B & Q.
