Giraffes...

Bent's is a huge garden centre close to the East Lancs Road between Leigh and the Warrington village of Culcheth. It started out as a garden nursery many years ago and has morphed into a huge tourist destination that happens to sell plants.

It is always busy and was packed this afternoon when I went to buy a few seeds. They've also opened a new part since I last went so there was more to get through and look at. It can be expensive but the quality of the plants on offer is exceptionally good. We like to go in the run up to Christmas when their display for the festive season is incredible. If you bought one of their featured trees you would pay £1000s. We just buy a few little things and make a feature of them.

They have all kinds of things to decorate your gardens. I didn't look at the price but it would be a shame to split up these two giraffes wouldn't it?
