Jersey Plants Direct have lots of plants for the garden you could be buying and planting right now. There’s some garden ready plants you could be putting in your front garden to ensure you have some winter colour, and you can plant these out, as long as the grounds not frosted!
I’d get some ordered now and plant them as soon as you can when they arrive. They offer good value and if you have come left over after you’ve filled your own garden then pop a few in a tub and take it round to your friends house as a present! They need a bit of watering in a tub but very little care other than looking at them and admiring!

If you have tubs by your front door you can fill them with wonderful winter colour and make sure your house has lots of kerb appeal. If you’re trying to sell your house you’ll know how important this is, and how it can make the different to a sale! So just think, if you’re not trying to sell your house, how nice it’ll be for your visitors to be greeted by great waves of pretty flowers.
Mix and match the colours, go wild! In the depths of winter all the colours will look fantastic and youll get some great colour combinations.
Plant an apple tree – again something I try to encourage people to do, it provides you with spring blossom and then autumn shape and colour as the fruit ripens. You’ll love picking apples from your very own fruit tree and it’s simple to grow and look after!
Enjoy your garden all year round by ensuring it’s got fantastic colour in it through the seasons. A hint is to buy a plant that is in flower for each month of the year and that way there should always be something pretty to look at. Don’t forget structural planting too – a tree or shrub that adds height can also add a structural element to your garden and make your vista more delightful!
