We do love a bargain, especially if it's this ridiculously good...
Yep, that's £1 a tree (US$1.67).
We spotted this fantastic bargain last Saturday in Poplars Garden Centre when we visited to buy some compost. They wanted to clear out some old stock to make way for new ones and several trees that didn't look perfect last year simply had to go this year. And when they want plants gone, they don't mess around with price reductions!
At £1 a tree, how could we go home with just one? We never did manage to get some compost but instead we went home with five trees instead.

| Five trees for a fiver! Even Twinkles was impressed! |

| Hardy, deciduous trees that are and look exotic! If you like the look of Albizia julibrissin 'Summer Chocolate' then you're likely to like this one |
 |
| If you like the look of Cercidiphyllum japonicum f. pendulum then you're likely to find this attractive too (just ignore the pink flowers in the spring) |
 |
| A tree with relatively big leaves and purple too! |

This gardening blog follows our journey as we create our Tropical and Exotic themed garden. We hope you'll enjoy the journey as much as we do. We started our Exotic Garden in 2005 and this site will show its development, as well as our travels, both abroad and within the UK to gardens, nurseries and friends.
