We decided to have a trip to Trago Mills, Newton Abbott at the weekend, to grab some bits and see if there were any bargains. When we got there we went to the newly opened restaurant and had a 'bargain breakfast' for £1.99 which included 1 sausage, 1 egg, 1 rasher of bacon, beans and toast. We also got the view of 'The Garden Park' which is the garden centre and Trago gardens.

Lucien spotted a newly introduced map and of Trago site, so decided to peruse it.
After eating our breakfast we went to have a look in the general store and found Christmas cards on sale for a bargain price so bought some to prepare ourselves. We also walked past a chiller cabinet that had
Westaways sausages that were also at a bargain price.

We then went to 'The Garden Park' to get compost and look round at the plants.
We came across a Cordyline karo kiri, we hadn't heard of this Cordyline before but were tempted by it because of it petit growing habit (maximum of 1.2 metres).

We also found two nice sized and healthy looking Butia odorata (labelled capitata). There was also a danish trolley full of different plants, where found some sempervivum and couldn't resist getting one.

| Butia odorata £92.99 |

| All 99p each. |
Whilst wandering around we found something that Lucien described as "great for Gaz and Marks garden".
We ended up with a stunning hand-made tiki mask, which we were looking at with Gaz and Mark a few weeks ago.

Ahh you guys finally made it to back to Trago Mills again :) I want that 'Karo Kiri'!! Wish we had more time at Trago when we visited but Segway had to take priority. Must go back again soon.

Quite jealous you have so many lovely garden places near you. May have to come on holiday that way one year!!!
