  Hello wonderfuls. My boss at work has tasked me with buying loads of plants for the two floors of our offices today. Any suggestions of a great place to buy plants that will make my money stretch? Online [or ideally somewhere I can drive to so I can bunk a few hours off and enjoy my 'chore'!!]. Plant suggestions also welcomed! Cheap pot suggestions? Bring 'em on! He gave me the task as I have an enormous plant on my desk. I've owned it for 10 years - what he doesn't know is that its the only plant in my life I haven't killed!!

  https://www.agroforestry.co.uk/ these guys do things for agroforestry but if you get semi dwarfing and dwarfing varieties and a nice big pot you can grow little trees and shrubs, peaches and lemons, kiwis and things because is indoors. I think the website says which are suitable for potting. Then there are perrineal edibles so creeping strawberries and lovage and all sorts that will produce berries and edible fragrant leaves and flowers. Edible flower websites also good too. When they get really big they can be planted in people's gardens then the office is like a nursary and the plants get everyone's good vibes

  Jukka K. asked:

  Does anyone have suggestions of European nurseries collecting & selling heirloom perennial vegetables & edible landscaping plants? E.g. similar to Oikos Tree Crops in USA. If the group policy allows mentioning commercial sources here (without any intention to advertise any specific one), I could list some that I know and have mail-ordered from. Even though this group is dedicated to (amateur) breeding, the availability of breeding material is a very important matter, in my opinion. What do you think?

  Thanks, Graham. Here are some that I've used, all mail-order. http://www.agroforestry.co.uk/ - UK. I've ordered from ART many times, great selection, grafted fruit&nut cultuvars, berrier, perennial vegetables, also an extensive seed list www.hortensis.de - Germany. A small but great nursery with lots of rare edibles. All fruit trees are on own roots. www.raritätengärtnereimanfredhans.de - Raritetengaertnerei Manfred Hans, Germany. An absolutely stunning collection of rare fruits. Many heirloom varieties from former USSR/Russia not available anywhere else in Western Europe. http://www.wildobstschnecke.de/ - the best selection of all of hardy kiwis
