Free: Viburnum bodantense shrub (Grandpont OX1) Gifted This is a mature shrub with well established roots, but it's been recently cut down to ground level. It will soon grow big again! You'll need tools to dig it up and a big container for the roots.

Free: Small pond (Grandpont OX1) Gifted Small pond in a blue ceramic bowl, 52cm x 54cm diameter, 24cm deep. There's a couple of aquatic plants in it but no other wildlife as far as I can see. It's got a bit empty in the dry weather and could do with some tlc, it's surplus to requirements now. I've no idea how heavy it is. I imagine it'll take 2 people to carry and a vehicle to transport.

Free: Grape vine (Grandpont OX1) Gifted Unknown variety, it grows vigorously and has lots of small grapes each year. I've made nice sweet grape juice from them. It's been planted in the shade, I'm sure the grapes would be bigger and sweet enough to eat without juicing if it was grown in a sunny spot. Anyone want to dig it up and try?

Request: Scalloped lawn edging tiles (Grandpont OX1) Expired These tiles are approx 22cm x 22cm x 2.5cm thick and are (I'm guessing) old. I have enough for half my garden and would love to be able to finish the job by re-using rather than buying new. Has anyone got any spare please? I reckon another 30-50 would do the job, and any contributions welcome. Many thanks.
