Question

Morning all!

I have just had my back garden sorted out - grass, pebbles and woodchips (= low maintenance!) and need some plants!

I am keen to have some big palms / ferns / bamboo. I have been to a small local garden centre but they had a v poor selection. Can anyone point me to a website or know of a good company??

Many thanks in advance!

Mossman, i could list loads, but obviously you'll want to see them etc. Plants like that are not cheap, so it will be worth the journey to a decent sized garden centre. Unless you're in the middle of nowhere, there must be a half-decent one within striking distance, no?

If it's warm enough where you live a big eff-off Aloe spiky thing would look really

Alternatively, get a triffid
