Free: Small Chinese Money plant (Walkley, S6) Gifted Pilea peperomioides. There are actually three plants in here but two are very small and need to get bigger before moving. The leaves should be green but they're a bit pale so look pinkish in the photos. This plant has had too much direct sunlight and needs nurturing to come back to its best.

Free: Candle wax remnants (Walkley, S6) Expired This is a bag of leftover wax from the bottom of tealight candles. Might be useful for crafting or making your own candles. Mostly white, but might be the odd other colour in there and there might be the odd bit of burnt wick.

Free: Tradescantia plant rooted cuttings (Walkley, S6) Gifted Also known as Wandering Dude. These have been rooted in water and have been in the water quite a long time. You can see their roots are tangled and have algae type green on them - they are fine to be planted up just as they are. This plant is near indestructible, perfect for beginners and you can make many more plants once you have it. It grows fast. These cuttings are currently very pink/purple in the leaves but they will have green in too and a lovely pattern in the leaves when given the right conditions. The fourth picture is the plant these cuttings were taken from to give you an idea. I'm not giving the original plant away! Technically there are multiple cuttings but I'm going to give them all to one person as they will make a fuller plant if all potted up together.

Free: Achillea Cerise Queen plants (Walkley, S6) Gifted These spread to fill a big pot so I've stuffed a load in a smaller pot. They spread horizontally so there are multiple plants all connected on horizontal roots.

Free: Small lamb's ear plants (Walkley, S6) Gifted I pulled these out a patch I have and put them in a small pot. They are good for ground cover and spread easily. Drought tolerant. This variety doesn't usually flower.

Free: Crocosmia/montbretia corms (Walkley, S6) Gifted Only a small bundle but once you have them they spread easily. These should be the orange ones but there could be the odd red one (lucifer) mixed in.

Free: Hedgetrimmer - needs repairing (Walkley, S6) Gifted Titan TTB357GHT hedge trimmer. I cut through the cable but I'm sure someone will be able to repair it. It was working fine before I cut through it!

Free: Plastic bell bot, broken rim (Walkley, S6) Expired Does anyone want this damaged plant pot before I throw it out? It is 28cm diameter, needs a wipe as has been in storage and a piece of the rim has cracked off as pictured. Looks fine if you keep the side with the broken rim at the back.

Free: Small strawberry plant (Walkley, S6) Gifted Rooted from a runner from a bigger plant last year. Small at the moment but will easily get bigger and put more runners out that you can make into new plants.

Free: Small lamb's ear plant (Walkley, S6) Gifted This is a good low maintenance ground cover plant, with lovely soft leaves. It spreads easily and can be divided easily, so I just pulled a piece off and planted it up. I think this is a variety that doesn't flower because it never has.

1y

Free: Foxglove seeds (Walkley, S6) Gifted I have loads of foxglove seeds I collected from my plants last year, which I've spread out into a few envelopes to give away. There are some bits of seed pod etc in there too but that won't do any harm. You can just sprinkle them where you want them outside. They will grow a plant in the first year, flower in the second year then die but only after they've created a whole load more seeds. They seed themselves across the garden readily.
