I am out of smaller-sized terracotta pots, which I prefer to plastic outside as they look nicer, are less likely to blow over and plant roots "breathe" better.
I couldn't understand why all the garden centres around me seemed to be out of stock. Was just told they didn't know when they'd have them back.
But yesterday I got the truth. The will NOT be back due to the high cost of energy now. These, as all products which require a furnace are just too costly to produce! I hadn't realised.
However, I did know that the first industry to go down for this reason is, sadly, the famous Venetian glass-blowing sector. These artisans are all closing shop.
