Olive plant

Doing a search for something else on the Grabbit board, I came across this offer from June. Sounded a bargain so followed the link to Fothergill's site to check if still available. An olive plant for £4.42 post free. Just ordered one and thought someone else on here might be interested. http://www.mr-fothergills.co.uk/catalogue/product/olive-plant/79000/

    Please note that the plants on offer are 9cm tall - that's about 3.5 inches.

    If anyone misses this offer, or wants to see what they are buying first, Lidl have them from Thursday 5th August at £5, height 50cms, but that may include pot height, it does not say
