From $30 for up to 1m and $40 from 1m to 1.5m.
All barerooted with all the original foiliage removed.you must do this for successful transplanting.
They all come with Pungamans fantastic guarantee that if you kill any I will replace them for free no questions asked except you may get a lecture on how to look after them 😉😉

Minimum purchase is 3 plants(no exceptions) as I learnt a long time ago,that if people spend a decent amount of money,they tend to look after them better and I don't end up replacing perfectly good plants.
Please ph/tx Carl on 0204PUNGAS to order.

I'm based in Ashley,not far from the pub or I may deliver to nearby areas.
Check out user " pungaman " on trademe,if you'd like to see my sales history.
Larger orders = better prices.

Nestled on leafy Windermere Road, you’ll discover a friendly community at The Bellevue. Marie has experienced it first-hand, telling us, “this is the place I’ve been able to make friends.”

Reflecting on when she first moved to the leafy village, Marie says, “Sarah (Guest Service Manager) got to know me in the first week. I had dinner with her.” Adding with a smile, “The chef here is absolutely marvelous.”

But Marie’s social life isn’t limited to delicious dinner dates; there’s always something happening at The Bellevue. “Sarah gets to know the residents and what they want to do. Everyone is different and has different needs. She’ll arrange things for what we want to do.”

Our Care Suites not only offer both Rest Home and Hospital care but feel like home too, with a living area, kitchenette and ensuite. And Marie couldn’t be happier. “I love my room. I have a little outside patio area. I can boil the jug and make myself a cup of tea and I can entertain friends. I have miles of photos up. I like having lots of photos around me.”

At The Bellevue, Marie has found that feeling many of us are searching for, “I wake up every morning and feel good.”
