Did a tour of a few of the Local garden centres this weekend and couldn't help noticing how high the prices were.
I've been on the West Country garden centre scene for more than 10 years and have never seen prices this high even when accounting for inflation.
By my reckoning, they were charging ten quid a foot! Mind you, people do tend to go for Nordmanns and Norway Blues which are slower growing and have to be imported.
Nice trees but I think if I were to buy one I'd go for a rootballed tree.
This year, missus and I went up to the big house with a bow saw and helped ourselves to a six foot Norway Spruce. Just like we do every year
