Just in case no-one else has raided Woolies, they have lots of fruit trees in for £1.99 ... raspberries, black, white and red currants, blackberries, tayberries, gooseberries and grapes.

And their kiwi trees are £2.99 and they're the self fertile one.

Guess who bought lots at the weekend ...  :D

I briefly saw they had some blueberry shrubs as well.  Now I would be tempted by that!
On the very steep learning curve of organic veg growing!!!!

And they have plastic greenhouses and greenhouse staging which don't look too bad.
Self-sufficient in rasberries and bindweed. Slug pellets can be handy.

I've just popped in our small Woollies.

got the last blackcurrant bush (I hope, as front had come away), they had loads of asparagus and chinese gooseberry.

Mr F seeds on BOGOF.  

Flower plants at BOGOG, so I got some black hollyhocks (as recommended by splodger) and cranesbill geranium.

A handy 5 in 1 tool for £1.79.

Nearly all the onion sets had gone, on BOGOF.

More deliveries Wednesday night.

Oops almost forgot; they had pomegranates too.

... I forgot that they did have pomegranates and cranberries, but I'm not keen on pomies and my soil isn't right for cranberries ...  :D

I've got one pomegranate left :(  I don't think I'd be able to grow any round here :(
