‘I’m in love’ B&M fans rave over bargain buy that’ll give their garden an instant glow up & doesn’t need a drop of water
PLANTS are the perfect way to add a pop of colour into your garden ahead of the warmer weather.
But if you’re anything like us, you end up spending a small fortune on summer blooms, only to forget to water them and watch them wilt away.
Well, that could soon be a problem of the past, because shoppers have been going wild for a bargain buy from B&M that’ll give your garden an instant glow up – and there’s no watering needed.
Suzanne Bre took to money-saving Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK and posted a snap of her recent purchase which now takes pride of place in her outdoor haven.
“I am in love, I got this in B&M yesterday. £15,” she enthused.
And for anyone wondering what the popular product is, it’s the high-street store’s ‘Solar Artificial Flower Pot’ from the high-street store.
Available in a stunning shade of pick of lilac, the faux plant is the perfect way to add some extra flair into your flower garden.
What’s more is the glowing arrangement is solar powered and will automatically activate at dusk, meaning there’s no wiring needed – so it really couldn’t be easier!
According to the product description online, the bargain buy features 10 warm white LEDs that will “create magic in your outdoor space.”
So it’s little surprise the summer buy has gone down a storm online, with many rushing to the comments section to praise it.
