Who Can Afford this, who wants to? Leigh is still on the hunt to find the best deal she can on our new garden supplies.

I agree with you wholeheartedly. Nursery prices are so high. I grow as much as I can from seed, I'm in no hurry.
Hi Sharon thank you for watching. I hope this doesn't drive seed prices up. I love growing my own!
Hey there, I work in a garden center in Belgium, when I saw the prices I was truly shocked. We sell those pots at half price here.
Omg hello Belgium I'm so excited to hear from you! ❤
Nice to watch your video 😊
Sadly, the same applies in the UK where I live. Plant nurseries were very badly hurt by covid, effectively losing 2 years of profits.Since then, plant prices have rocketed! Some of this is businesses making up for lost profit, but I am in NO DOUBT that there is some grifting going on!
Hi Liam it's always so wonderful to hear from the uk, love it!!! I follow I few creators over there. Someday I'll visit Nicholsons ☺
Thanks for taking us along on your trip!
Love having you along!
Wow! Prices are making my stomach hurt 😂 but thank you for taking us along and showing us all the lovely things 🌷
Yes I agree. After my project is done, I'll only be browsing, very sickening 😔
Thanks so much for taking me shopping with you today and it was a wonderful day out and about with a great friend
Awww thanks sandy it's wonderful to shop with friends this way!
I purchased seeds this year after seeing the nursery prices.
Thank you for watching and commenting. I sure hope you stay with us. I'm growing almost everything from seed! Shrubs I have to buy for a project. But all flowers veg and herbs from seed!!!
@@ourbackyardgarden Great. Just subbed.
@@copperpenny0209 much appreciated! Hope to hear from you again 🙂
Those prices are very reasonable. You should see the prices in Florida for plants!
Wow thats so scary.
Was your number one fan today first one to leave a comment on the video
Thank you so much 💖
Hi Leigh, just found your channel. We’re in Berlin Borough, next to Marlton. Love that you’re a local gardener sharing your gardening experience. I’ve found some deals at Produce Junction, but even they have gotten high. Happy gardening! 🌸🌿🌞
Hi sue!!!! Wow I love connecting to local viewers. Have you ever shopped at laurel oak or axtens? Beautiful nurseries! So nice to hear from you!
@@ourbackyardgarden No I haven’t been to Laurel Oak but pass by it often, I just know it’s so expensive there. I try to stick to Home Depot, Lowes, Walmart and Produce Junction. Some vendors at the Berlin Mart on weekends are reasonable but yes, everything is super high now. 🙁
@@ourbackyardgarden I’ll have to check out Axtens, I’ve probably driven by it so many times and didn’t see it! 🌸
@@susanjohnson1428 it's worth visiting next to laurel oak across from cherokee. Also, watch today's video for a tour if green top at Columbus mart. It's well worth the ride! Still more expensive but best prices so far.
Subscribed! New friend from Virginia ❤❤❤Thank you ❤❤❤
Hi there so happy to see you!!!
I have started to replace, in a twenty year old garden, my hosta, lilies, roses, and any other deer and rabbit loving plants that I own. I started last year, and noticed the price increases then. Gallon size and up were at least $8 more last year, and are $10 to $12 more this year. So if it was $24, it’s now $34. Two to three gallon plants are $40 and more. I am not growing anything from seeds, as I don’t have the room or temperament. I do try to split plants, if possible, to get two from one. But, that’s often not possible. Four hellebores cost me $100. What I am doing and will continue to do, is dig and divide what I own. I’m investing in allium, butterfly bushes, dwarf varieties, dahlias and peonies. Salvia work too. But, sticker shock continues.
Hi Maureen, I agree totally. After this project I'm working with what I have already to split. Stay tuned the saga continues next video, tomorrow!
It's time for gardeners to start back sharing plants and bartering with each other...... Plants and garden items have gotten to expensive..
I love that idea! It could all be so much more simple!
Yes, if you're patient enough you can grow these from seeds 🌱🌸👍 43$ for vinca. That's what I said in my last video. When you buy them they are very expensive but when you have them they grow like weeds.
And funny about our vinca, it's invading from the neighbors behind our fence. We never even planted it!
I think plants are a little cheaper here in ireland 3Lt plants are about 14 euro and 2Lt are about 7 or 8 euro. Dunnes store supermarket sell aquileiga for 5 euro 3 Lt plant. When you know how quickly some of these plants increase you can't justify what the garden centres are charging. Everyone should take a chance at growing some plants from seed.
Can I just tell you how happy I am to know I reached Ireland. Someday I'd like to shop for shrubs over there!!! Thank you so much for watching and commenting 😊 ❤
I'm dividing this year.
Us too! Stay tuned for the next video!
❤❤❤❤Thank you ❤❤❤❤
Thank YOU 😊
Wow they are really expensive - am in UK we can buy a tray of 12 bedding plants for about £3 - 6 veg plants for £3 and the perennials which you saw for $20 are 3 for £10 here 😀 are they so expensive because of the cost of transporting them?
Wow we had those prices years ago. The cost of minimum wage has increased and getting handed down to the consumer. And the price of gas also. All sorts of fuel surcharges too
@@ourbackyardgarden petrol is much more expensive here - it's swings and roundabouts - we gain in some things and lose in others 🌿
Wow! Was that that invasive Vinca from hell for $$? Really?
Between that and I seen that horrible stonecrop that is all over the lawn every year they can keep it. I couldn’t believe I seen that stonecrop for sale recently. It says it likes sand and dry and Boy does it Ever!
I think I have the salvia market cornered 😅. I couldn’t see the varieties on what they had and I’m not keen on what is popular. So many varieties of many flowers these days. I bought a Cats PJs Nepata last year and it was quite small and it’s doing well this year. Have several varieties of salvia and one Victoria and like you say-dozens-it’s taking me forever to get them potted up and I’m grouping them.
I told the plants today-“Sink or swim” and they went full sun today.
Planted 9 bare root plants, bread seed poppies, celery, lettuce, petunias and onions-then created an arch for rose and clematis with bits and pieces we had. I would like to put peppers in (the ones I sowed too early) and as soon as they all look ready it’s go time! I need a break from babysitting so many kids 😅. Have to study the weather as storms and wind were mentioned.
We are getting rain, but it’s choosing the same path around us still and we get spritzed mostly.
I think I seen Mr. Limpet in the pond! 😂
I know, I tired of babysitting, in and out, up and down. It's wonderful and overwhelming all at once. 16 hour days now, back is out. I can't think.
@@ourbackyardgarden I know you have had past injuries and I hear your knees singing a song 🎶 but maybe cherry juice could help. It’s no fun I’m sure. I live with one that has had a lot of pain in the last month. I need to get to the store for cherry juice as Costco doesn’t have it again. It took at least 2 years to get mushrooms back🙄.
Beginning to the end, I’m a full supportive friend to my friends that fully support me back
You're the best thank you!!
