What plants have you been buying lately?

I got a sedum, frosted fire today. I quite fancy the red one but for now I think I will leave it. I also bought the last of the hebes the other day.
I didnt know this time of year would have such interesting plants.

[Small pumpkin]

No plant buying. Just seeds,seeds,seeds. I like seeds.

Seeeeeeeds for me too
Although I have bought a nectarine, a donut peach and 3 more sorts of raspberries

[bearded bloke]

Apparently there are 6 varieties, so future missions will be to find yellow, orange & purple flowering plants

Don't really buy plants much, cheaper from seed

Not allowed to buy plants, on a very strict budget till February. Have been sneaking the odd packet of seeds out of food shopping money though. After all they will be for food eventually !

Im going to get a thornless blackberry today, I bought a normal one last year but not one took :/ so hopefully I have better luck with these. Dunno where they are going to go like but Ill squeeze them in somewhere

I boasted my points and got some bearded irises, a nectarine, a kiwi berry and a heuchera. It is rare for me to 'buy' proper plants

I dunno why but I find that I just dont have time or patience for flowers/shrubs unless I can just sow them and they grow and reseed that same year without any interfearence. I dunno if its due to being at work and finding it hard enough keeping up with my veg and weeds.

I always look after edibles much better, think it's because they're of greater value to me

Manly just seeds for me also, but i will by a Poinsettia or 2 or 3 or 4, we do not do a xmas tree and i have visitors this year so will be nice to have a couple around. They are big in Spain and everyone has them everywhere.

Our local GC has a mahoosive area where plants are sold usually at half price. They are bandaged,broken and buckled but I always like a challenge (or maybe I'm just a tight git!)
Sometimes its the only area i visit in the GC and if nothing looks forlorn enough to take my fancy, I just walk out.
Recently I've picked up a blood red heuchera, a pink rose bush, a goji berry, a grapevine and another perennial who's name i couldn't pronounce or remember.
