Good place to buy plants?

[Sonata]

I'm looking for a mail order place (I think), or possibly a nursery near Ashford (Kent) or Canterbury as I'd like to make my garden more bee friendly. I'm not sure where I'll put them, perhaps do a more potager-type thing for next year, but I'd like to find things like foxgloves and er..bee friendly flowering plants.

I buy all the things I don't raise myself from car-boot sales.(Or from my friend Jackie, I haven't forgotten your wee pots!)

Don't you want to buy seeds?
Cheaper than plants.

One of the best plants for bees are chive flowers.

There are loads of Garden Centres on the M25 belt:
Garden Centre of the year Coolings, PoleHill, Rushmore Hill, Rushmore GC, there are LOADS of them...Or go to one of the big Flower shows...Kent County Show.

local farmers markets usually have young plants for sale !

Seeds are much, much cheaper, you need flowers for both long tongued bees and short tongues. The long tongued ones like flowers like foxgloves, and those with funnel shaped flowers. Bees love purples and blues and borage is a favourite of bees in my garden.
Google flowers for bees and you will get a big list, the organic gardening catalogue has lots of good seed mixes of flowers too and they would have a bee friendly mix i am sure.

No rush for the pots. lol
I managed to raise some flowers from seed but some fell at the first hurdle lol or I forgot to sow seeds. I then look around for some cheap plants from the market and have bought some marrow and butternut squash plants even though I have seeds lol

Thanks everyone. I was worried that I was too late in the year to raise seeds, but heck, why not..I have windowsill space now.
