Hydrangea ‘Preziosa’ (hydrangea) £9.99
Position: full sun or partial shade Soil: moist, well-drained, moderately fertile, humus-rich soil Rate of growth: average Flowering period: August and September Hardiness: fully hardy Masses of mophead flowers start out deep pink in June, maturing to red with a crescendo of burgundy by the end of the year on neutral or slightly acidic soil . On acid soil, the flowers will open blue or mauve. This upright, deciduous hydrangea is a gorgeous specimen plant for a sunny or partially shady border where the purple-flushed foliage will add colour. It looks particularly good planted with other hydrangeas. The flowerheads are also a popular choice for dried flower arrangements. Garden care: Hydrangeas do not like to dry out. In dry weather, soak the roots with a hose and the plant will usually recover. Remove faded flowerh eads in spring after the danger of frosts, cutting back the flowered stems to a strong pair of buds. Take out misplaced or diseased shoots. Mulch young plant s with a well-rotted manure or compost in spring. Once established, remove a quarter to a third of the shoots to the base of the plant. Hydrangeas give their best blue flowers on acidic soil of pH 5.5. When grown on neutral soil, with a pH of 7, flowers will predominantly be pink, although blue or mauve blooms can also be produced. To produce blue blooms, make sure your soil is acidic with a pH of at most 6.5. To make a neutral soil acidic you can treat it annually with aluminium salts. However it’s much harder to alter the pH of limey soil (alkaline), so it’s easier to grow white or pink hydrangeas.

Hydrangea Expression (‘Youmesix’) (hydrangea) £9.99
Position: full sun or partial shade Soil: moist, well-drained, moderately fertile, humus-rich soil Rate of growth: average Flowering period: July to September Flower colour: pink (or blue on acidic soils) Other features: contact with the foliage may aggravate skin allergies; the flower-heads make excellent dried flower arrangements Hardiness: fully hardy One of the new breed of re-blooming hydrangeas, which will flower for far longer than many of the older types, but this is the first in its class to have double flowers. In good conditions, you should see the first flowers emerging in late spring or early summer, pink on neutral or alkaline soils and blue on acidic ones. They will then carry on appearing in big, rounded clusters, right up until the first frosts. More compact than many other mopheads, it is ideal for pots, where they can be used to provide summer-long colour to the patio, or place it in a prominent spot towards the front of a shrub border. Garden care:To enhance flowering prune in spring, cutting back the flowered stems to a strong pair of buds below each flower-head. Once established, remove a quarter to a third of the old shoots to the base of the plant.

Position:sun to partial shade Soil:fertile, well-drained soil Rate of growth:slow at first, then medium Flowering period: early summer Hardiness: fully hardy Pruning: none required A star plant, this climbing Hydrangea thrives in some of the most shady, inhospitable areas of the garden.

Its almost heart-shaped, dark green leaves turn yellow in autumn, and masses of showy, lacy, white flowerheads appear in late spring and early summer. Garden care: Plant in moist, fertile soil and do not allow the soil to dry out while the plant is getting established. This hydrangea flowers on the previous season’s wood, so if you need to prune it back, do so in late autumn or early spring, but be warned that this will restrict flowering the following year.

The flowerheads are a popular choice for dried flower arrangements . Contact with the foliage may aggrevate skin allergies. Garden care: Hydrangeas do not like to dry out.

On alkaline soils th e flowers may become pink. This compact, deciduous hydrangea is perfect for small gardens in sun or partial shade.

Asparagus needs a well prepared bed. It’s a long term crop that doesn’t like being moved or disturbed. Ensure the bed is weed free and especially free of any nasty perrenials like couch grass that will disturb the roots when you weed. An edged bed will help keep weeds out and be a good area to create a raised bed.
It needs mulching in the autumn. Seaweed can be used, but other mulches will be acceptable. It is shallow rooted so do not hoe unless you can be very careful.

Bokashi Active Bran which is a dry mixture of bran and molasses that has been inoculated with the correct levels of Professor Higa’s tiny creatures. Sprinkle a layer of Bokashi Active Bran over the kitchen waste you want to compost, and that’s it… the beneficial micro-organisms in the Bokashi get to work treating your waste in a process that takes just a couple of weeks. At the end of the process the waste doesn’t really look as though it has decomposed, if anything it looks as though it has been pickled, but when it is incorporated into soil (or added to a conventional compost heap) it breaks down amazingly rapidly, releasing large quantities of soil boosting probiotic micro-organisms which nourish the soil naturally.

Bokashi Value Pack (18 litre), Black Kit £62.00
This is our recommended start-up system for Bokashi composting. It includes 2 of our Bokashi Buckets and 1kg of Bokashi Active Bran – all loaded with beneficial micro-organisms – plus Instructions. Start off your Bokashi composting with one of the buckets. Keep adding your waste mixed with the Bokashi Active Bran until this bucket is full, then set it aside and leave it for a fortnight. After this you can safely add the contents to your conventional composter or dig them into your garden where they will compost amazingly quickly. Meanwhile you can carry on composting using the second bucket.
