Apple 'Meridian' - 1 tree

Apple ‘Meridian’ – 1 tree was £19.99 now £10.99
Apple ‘Meridian’ is one of the best modern UK-developed apple varieties. An attractive well-flavoured modern English apple from Falstaff and Cox that is simply bursting with juice. The fruits are similar to ‘Cox’s Orange Pippin’ but with a more delicate, though well balanced flavour. They can be harvested from October.Grafted onto a dwarfing rootstock, the crowns of ‘Meridian’ apple trees are easily reached to prune, spray and pick your delicious fruit. Apple ‘Meridian’ is partially self fertile, but for the heaviest crops it is best grown with another variety to ensure good pollination. If you only have room for one tree then make sure that a neighbour has a tree close by that can act as suitable pollinator. Height and spread: 2.5m (8’) Rootstock: M9.

Sophie Conran Potting Sieve -

Sophie Conran Potting Sieve – £16.95
The Sophie Conran Potting Sieve is a small but perfectly formed addition to the famous home and garden designer’s range of garden tools and equipment and will sieve soil gently over seeds post-planting. Here’s what Sophie herself had to say about the potting sieve; I believe in having the right tools for the job. That’s why I have designed this little potting sieve. It is just the right size for sprinkling fine compost over my seeds (and not all over my potting bench) giving them the best start.”The handle of this attractive pot-sized sieve is made from waxed FSC beech wood; there’s a brass ferrule keeping everything in place and the 10cm diameter sieving head complete with 5cm wide apertures ensures an even spread of fine compost. As with the Sophie Conran dibber the 24.5cm long potting sieve is beautifully presented in the finest quality hinged lid presentation box complete with magnetic closure and comes complete with a 5 year guarantee.”
