NOW spring has sprung all gardeners are busy, but please, as you pot up, dig down, put in and pull out, don’t throw away any spares.

Just pop in a pot, put in a corner and on Sunday morning of May 17, potter down with them to St Leonard’s Hospice plant sale.

Your few minutes of kindness will blossom to help such a good cause and you could find a bargain as well.

Mrs M Barker, Ousecliffe Gardens, York
