Willow screening for your garden

Options
Our local garden centre (in Derby) is selling 4m x 2m rolls of willow sscreening for £36. They also do smaller rolls, but I haven't a clue how much they are.

Having trawled the web and Ebay, the best price I had been able to find these for was £44.99 plus P&P.

Having brought three rolls to cover up a nasty cinder block wall, I can say they aren't bad quality and will (!) apparently last longer than bamboo, reed or brushwood screening. The are made by a company called Guardman.

It's from a chain called 'Garden Centres of Excellence' which seem to have a number of branches in the midlands.

    These were on offer a while back at Wickes half price was 19.99 to 9.99.

    Online will be expensive for this sort of thing as postage is expensive.
  • we bought ours from a place in doncaster called waites. its near conisborough castle. only downside is we've had it up a year and its ready for the bin. its not very strong and the rain has made it a manky colour.

    Still were last week, i got a couple plus a bamboo one for 30 quid :)
  • I saw some in Wilkinsons last week for half price - most of the summer garden stuff was half price. Did not have a look at price but would not imagine it would be that expensive as it is Wilkos after all.
