If you’re a self-proclaimed #PlantParent, you’ll be well aware of the feeling that takes over as you enter any garden centre... utter panic. How will I fit all of these plants in my car? Should I hire a van? Will my other half abandon me when they see the bank statement? How can I POSSIBLY leave any of these beauties behind?

As you’re dragged from the shop at closing time, you might be left wondering if there’s a better way to get your plant fix, and thankfully, there is.
