I brought loads from eBay, not bad quality either!

eBay.co.uk Shop - garden-wonder shopping: Plastic Pots: SANKEY 2 LTR DEEP ROSE PLANT POTS 6 X 10


If anyone knows where I can get a pack of 10+ 30CM posts on the cheap let me know!

find someone who does the planting for your local council as they throw away pots after doing the planting around town because they can't re-use them for some reason.
that is where i get mine from.

My local Poundland had packs of ten pots at various sizes when i was in last week.

Oh, I might have to look in Pondland, may venture down there this week then. Did you notice any 30CM pots?

Did'nt notice any as big as that but then again ours is just a small store.
I got 8cm and 10cm ones and there may have been bigger ones there also.

I cannot recommend NA Kays - they've had my credit card money since 23 January and still haven't completed my order!!! Part of the order was for Sankey pots, which weren't in stock until recently. Their customer service is appalling, they give you no idea of why your order hasn't been sent out and you're just left waiting and wondering....

Oh eck SBP, that's not good

I can vouch for LBS, they are very good. And I think Sewer Rat uses them too?

Poundland last week had 48 x 7cm pulp pots, 20 x 8cm plastic pots.

A friend who has an allotment gets his big pots from any supermarket that sells flowers. The big pots they put the bouquets in can't be sent back to the suppliers so they sell them off. So I bought 16 large black heavy duty plastic pots from Morrisons last week that are big enough for tomatoes, carrots and potatoes etc. for £1.98. If you don't see any out near the display, ask someone to get some from the back. And you'll need to put holes in the bases before using them...where's that screwdriver!

Told my neighbour about it and she says Aldi will give them away sometimes.

Happy Planting

Hi, our local big garden centre has started to put out big bins for folk to put their old pots in you can go along and help yourself, it is a large company called Blooms, other centres near you might do that too.

They (NA Kays) finally completed the order today, the goods are fine, the prices are often competitive, but it took at least four phone calls and talking to a supervisor to find out what was going on and getting the stuff delivered!
