Do you mean the whole group, or just some outlets ?  There are 3 of them near me, the nearest is just 10 mins at the end of the village.  Oh Oh, do I hear planning applications, I know these ones have horticultural tags, but I am not too sure if that is relevant these days.  Oh well, not a lot I can do, I can't even afford 1 of them.   :lol: :lol: :lol: Mrs Bouquet

Ha ha Ha Sunny!

This had been on the cards for ages, we(my old hotel development firm), wanted one of their sites years ago!

And I seriously hurt myself trying to carry two planters for Mrs Growster's birthday in their Tunbridge Wells store several years ago, and eventually couldn't even hold a knife and fork because of that!

The curse of Growster lives on..;0)
