I have found that plant sellers tend to get their new 'fresher' stock ready for punters on Saturday late on Friday. In order to ensure you get the best specimens, go last thing on Friday night or very early Saturday morning.
DIY stores
The main advantage of DIY stores is the cheap price. The main disadvantage is they have a very limited choice.
Garden Centres
The main advantage of garden centres is they often have a broader choice. The main disadvantage is they are more expensive usually.
Plant Nurseries
The main advantage of nurseries is the cheap price and quality of specimens. The main disadvantage is they often have a limited choice.
Buying online
The main advantage is that the choice is virtually limitless. The main disadvantage is you don’t get to see what you’re buying.
Scrounging
You can scrounge cuttings and seedlings from friends and family and if you’re cheeky, you can take cuttings from plants from anywhere ;^)
