Free: Honeysuckle plant. (Hayle TR27) Expired This is quite a mature plant but the poor thing has been tortured by living in a trough! It urgently needs to go in the ground. All of a sudden, I can’t upload a picture, despite having just done one with the same phone five minutes ago for a different post.

Free: Windscreen phone holder (Hayle TR27) Gifted N. B. I am only getting rid of this because I’ve got a new car with sat nav! This is a very effective holder for a phone, so that you can legally use it while driving. It fits onto the windscreen with a suction pad. I only had to attach it once, it never fell off and it easily adjusts to the size of your phone. Charging port with 2 usb sockets included, just use your own cord.

334d

Free: Large pieces of cardboard. (Hayle TR27) Expired Could someone use these for garden/allotment weed suppression? Would be grateful for quick reply as the cardboard is taking up a lot of room under the stairs!

351d

Free: Small axe (Hayle TR27) Gifted This was given to me for log chopping years ago but I’m scared of axes so I’ve never even taken the guard off it! It’s been in the shed for years so some superficial rust but as far as I know the blade is fine. Adult only to collect.

355d

Free: Square plastic pot, with Erigiron growing in it (Hayle TR27) Gifted The pot is not beautiful but might be useful for growing veg. If you like Erigeron, also known as fleabane, but haven’t got any this will self seed freely. It sells for silly money at the garden centre!

Free: Albertine climbing rose (Hayle TR27) Gifted This is a beautiful rose which I have had for some years in a pot. It now really needs to go in the ground, against a wall or strong trellis. It looks lovely against an old wall and will grow vigorously. But it is thorny! It will need two people to collect, bringing a wheelbarrow or sack carrier to transport it. I can wrap the branches in some horticultural fleece to help protect from the thorns. I’m sad to see it go & really hope that someone would like it!

Both good quality, need some cleaning I dark blue Roman blind 55cm wide x 98 drop I yellow & grey spotted Roman blind 54cm wide x 98 drop Both Roman blinds have been up for a while & need some cleaning/new fabric but for someone who likes making things the framework ( don’t know what to call it) is good quality & sturdy.

The lunchbox game is a bit battered but all the pieces are there & I have downloaded & printed the instructions. Spelling game is complete. Instructions missing from counting game & it’s not listed on Orchard Toys, but I don’t imagine it would be difficult to work out how to play it as it says it’s suitable for three year olds!

1y

Free: Two large plastic pots, one with plant (Hayle TR27) Gifted These are about 18” diameter. One is empty, the other has a perennial lobelia planted which flowered very well during the summer. It’s a rich red but I’ve lost the label so don’t have the name. The pot with soil in is quite heavy but I can borrow a sack carrier for you to transport it to your vehicle. Easy access from my gate. As plastic pots go they’re not too ugly!

1y

Free: Bi coloured Hebe in large pot (Hayle TR27) Gifted Pink/ purple Hebe plant in large dark green plastic pot. Will need something like a sack carrier to remove - unless you are very strong!
