    Our Lidl puts delicate houseplants outside in sub zero temperatures.  We usually only buy hardy types within a couple of days of the offer start.

    Never associate with idiots on their own level, because, being an intelligent man, you'll try to deal with them on their level - and on their level they'll beat you every time.

    Being hated by idiots is the price you pay for not being one of them.

    Some of the best plants I've bought have been Morrisons and Aldi.

    The Ivy I bought from Morrisons a couple of years ago at a £1 a pot has grown like wildfire up the fence I bought it to cover, prior to this I'd purchased a couple from a garden centre at a lot more than that, and it hasn't performed anywhere near as well in the same spot.

    I've found Aldi great for things like Wisteria and Jasmine.  I think a lot is how they are looked after though, get them home, repot and a bit of food always helps.
