IN THE GARDEN | Annual seedlings offer an instant reward

If your happy place is walking around a garden nursery — but at that time your pocket cannot quite satisfy your plant desires — buying just a couple of annual seedling trays won’t break the bank and should go some way towards appeasing your yearning to invest in fresh new plants. Depending on the nursery, a flower tray/punnet costs between R20 and R30, and is guaranteed to introduce a fairly immediate burst of cheery colour to your garden or balcony.
