To get that number cheaply, you may need to propogate yourself. Bay trees have become very expenseive over the last few years as the 'mupwardly ohbiles' have used them where box once stood...

I've got two I planted and they're doing ok. I paid about £4.00 each I think. I don't know about propagating them, but I'll take some cuttings and see if they root if you want.
Now where's me hormone rooting powder? ;D

we arent buying the bay trees now, we have found out where to steal them instead. Enter Stormy and her Mum in black masks. Wearing flat caps, red and black striped pullovers and carrying big bags with the word, 'Swag' in black letters on them, raiding a local tree nursery and leaving nothing but a big hole where the trees were. Local police say they are looking into it. ;D ;D ;D Mick. |
