  • I totally agree with you, it's always my first port of call when I am after more bulbs or shrubs. I have fabulous displays year after year with all the lily bulbs I have bought there. My DD bought a loganberry a couple of years back and this summer it has been groaning under the weight of all the berries. You can't go wrong for a pound! I've also had lots of cute little garden ornaments!

    My DD1 works in our Poundland and it has been a godsend since it opened in May. An added bonus is I ask her if they've got something and she buys it for me and because it's only a pound here and there and she works and I don't she never wants the money back.

    It's only a bargain if you were going to buy it anyway!

    The equipment is fine, but the raspberries and gooseberries I bought didn't survive, not one!

  • The gardening bits and pieces have been great - cloches, fleece, seeds, basket liners, bamboo sticks. I'm going to make sure I stock up early next year before some bits run out.
  • I've noticed Fish Blood and Bone in my local Poundland too ! :)

    I have lots of blackcurrants; gooseberries; redcurrants, etc etc i think they all grew. You can't go wrong for a £1.

    are pound land seed germination rates up there with the best of them, or of a poorer stock?
