Spider plants (Loughborough LE11)
Many available. Easy to look after. Hard to kill. Can be kept small or allow to grow big with lots of baby spider plants trailing down. They like bright, indirect sunlight, such as near an east- or west-facing window, away from harsh direct rays which can burn the leaves. They thrive in moderate temperatures (13C to 27C. Perfect for hanging planters, shelves, or well-lit bathrooms/kitchens due to their love for moderate humidity.

Young Dracaena indoor plant (Loughborough LE11)
I have to give away most of my indoor plants for various reasons, though will probably keep a few. I will do a separate post for each type of plant as that will be easier. This is a Dracaena. They like bright, indirect light and warm conditions, they are ideal for homes and offices. They are highly resilient, needing water only when the top few inches of soil are dry. Easy to look after. Nice leaves.

Young Monstera plant (Swiss cheese plant) (Loughborough LE11)
I have to give away most of my indoor plants for various reasons, though will probably keep a few. I will do a separate post for each type of plant as think that will be easier. This is a young swiss cheese plant. They can grow very big if you want. Swiss cheese plants (Monstera deliciosa) thrive in bright, indirect light and warm, humid conditions. Water weekly, only when the top 1–2 inches of soil are dry, using well-draining soil. They need climbing support like a moss pole. I'm happy to include a bigger pot and a moss pole I bought for when it becomes bigger.

Garden Storage box (Oadby LE2)
Hi friends. Just wondering if anyone has one of those plastic waterproof garden storage boxes please? Something which is big enough to fit things like a mower and gardening tools (so roughly 4ft to 6ft wide, 3ft or 4ft deep and 3ft or 4ft high... or in metric that's roughly 1.2m to 1.8 wide, 0.9m to 1.2m wide and 0.9m to 1.2m high). Ideally if it can be taken apart for transport, else I don't have a car big enough to move it. Thanks in advance.
