It wasn't intended to be. It was intended to be s helpful suggestion to get cheap plants next year.


For this year, you could try Columbia Road market.

Columbia Road market is miles away for most people to travel to buy plants Sue.


Also agree with point about Sainsburys Dog Kennel Hill with their plant selling. Half of the poor plants are crying out to be watered and I've rescued loads whilst they're on offer but feel quite sad when they are just left to die.


Sainsburys must have a member of staff who could water all their plants for sale surely? Not a good point of sale as you walk in to their entrance.

It obviously isn't local, but it's not hard to get to by bus.


You can transport plants quite easily on the bus in one of those big blue IKEA bags.

    • The step means Love Dulwich is not disabled friendly though they went to help someone on  crutches up the step last time we were there  much prefer it as a Turkish than café but maybe not for this group   The noise level might be an issue as it’s all hard surfaces though I don’t recall it being noisy. check out Olivelli the menu has a good range  though it’s not the best Italian you can get. There’s also a step up into Maria’s - much smaller but you need to negotiate the step and door at the same time. Olivelli has more room and if I remember right the toilets are on the ground floor. A consideration if steps are an issue The Lordship might be an option. Noise is not usually an issue. We’ve enjoyed various meals there. The ladies toilets are on the same floor as the tables (the gents may be upstairs). The staff are always friendly
    • It’s about chains, and the ethos of family run business versus unhealthy competition

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
