WhooHoo freebie plants


Well my luck is in Reg who lives opposite with his wife are selling their house, he's going blind a side effect of a degenerative disease and their son (professional footballer)can't say who as he is well known and they don;t want the stress worry of press every 5 minutes anyhow he has brought them a bunglow which they have had adapted for Reg. Well his house is up for sale and they have had an offer and Reg has popped over tonight (they have moved into the bungalow now) so the house is empty and said if I want any plants from the front garden then please come and take them he has loads of cromostia and foregt me knot the "perrenial one" gorgeous, plus some roses which I wont; take as they are lovely but established and I would not feel right taking those. I will take some of his other perrenials etc.

When I take the afore mentioned plants up he wants me to do some up for him too so he can take them with him too. He can't dig anymore.

Re: WhooHoo freebie plants


Freebies are great - and you get to keep memories of your old neighbour too.
Hope you get a nice new neighbour.

Thanks all.

I don't think any of you would be aware but do you know I have never had a NOT nice neighbour, only nice people move by us around here we are all nice people.

Re: WhooHoo freebie plants


He is very thoughtful of you Kazz, but in my job that is a major problem!!! Unless he has stated on his fixture and fittings list that he is taking them, it could cause a stink when the owners move in and find no plants in their garden!!!

Re: WhooHoo freebie plants


I'd imagine that that is one of the reasons you're taking the "renewable" plants but leaving the long-term, structural plants?
