But, last I knew, the nearest thing to a garden centre, round here, sort of kept a wheel out tray of the usual border plants. Shit people put in hanging baskets. Saying that? I asked a mate, last week. Said he'd ask his wife. Seems she teaches horticulture! That normal mint on the right was from tesco Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I believe I might have already stated, somewhere on here, peppermint is no good for my purposes. That's what most of the dried stuff is, once we dig a little. Comes from Egypt and Turkey. Places like that, where they drink it as tea. I'm trying to scrounge a sprig of Spearmint, simply because that steals a march on the growing cycle. Possibly a shade easier too? Dunno. Failing that, I'll try the couple of places available to me. Failing That ? I'll take a tip from you and mail order some plugs! I never even got so far as Thinking of that!
