How does that work? Across Victoria we’ve had a beautiful long growing season over Summer. As a result, plants have gotten way bigger than expected.
Growers like us, as well as our suppliers get to a point at this time of year where they either have to put these plants into bigger pots, or they have to sell them fast.
To top it off, when plants are oversized, the big chain stores don’t really want them, and some growers would rather sell their big bushy plants off a bit cheaper than take on the work of moving them into bigger pots.
So we’re helping these growers clear these great value plants.
Our resident garden guru Chris says: “If you are a person who’s wanting to get the garden looking great now because you’re fixing the place up to sell, or you want a bit of size and you are on a tight budget, buying oversized plants is the way to do it. You actually get bigger plants and pay less, which you don’t get this at any other time of the year.
“Often you go to a plant nursery and you look at a plant and you think, gee, that should still be back in the glasshouse. It’s a little too tiny! So what’s actually more common in nurseries is to have them overpriced and undersized. But we’ve got the reverse in this situation: oversized and under-priced. So enjoy this sale and get onto it while it lasts as stocks are limited.”
