I looked through the first 30 or so lots, there’s no reserve but I can’t imagine anyone bidding on them.

Yet all but one of the first 30 already has at least one bid.

100 of Haemanthus for £5? If it only wasn't a 4 hours' drive one way...

Would love to bid on some of the plants but 5 hours one way to pick up, no thanks.

I’ve had another look and even if they were free and no shipping charges I still can’t see anything worth having. I wonder if some of the better plants have already gone. Sorry to sound a bit negative about it but from a collectors perspective or from a nurseryman’s perspective, I still can’t see anything there.
