Shop wisely to get the best value

Shopping for plants and plant care products can be pretty mind-blowing if you're not familiar with the many choices on offer.

You may enter a garden centre (or garden center, depending where you live!) thinking you just wanted some blue flowers for your garden, only to be confronted by choices you didn't know existed such as different plant categories, bewildering ranges of plant care products and daunting selections of gardening tools. Just planting a patio container can pose a plethora of questions!

A good plant nursery or garden retail store will have well-informed staff available to help you choose the right plants, containers and plant care products for your needs.
