pansies
This week Aldi have packs of 24 pansy/viola plug plants for just £2.
They are tiny but should grow nicely for the coming winter!

I've just got a load coming up that I sowed from seed late July. They're just about ready to flower.
Might pop along to Aldi and pick up some for a little later in the year. Thanks Merlin.

Yeah I have some in the garden that are doing quite nicely, but have noticed that the little Teabag is mad on them (always eats any pansy flowers I give her first!) so thought it would be best to stock up!
Put some in small pots so when they have grown a bit and start flowering I can put them in the table with her so she can help herself... And my window boxes were looking a tad empty anyway...
