Clematis 'Venosa Violacea' (clematis (group 3))

Clematis ‘Venosa Violacea’ (clematis (group 3)) was £17.99 now £12.99
Position: full sun or partial shade Soil: fertile, well-drained, neutral soil Rate of growth: fast-growing Flowering period: July to September Flower colour: purple Other features: N/A Hardiness: fully hardy Each white flower is heavily veined with violet-purple towards the outer edges of the sepals creating a striking two-tone effect. A viticella clematis, the flowers appear for several months from midsummer. Garden care: In early spring cut back the previous year’s stems to a pair of strong buds about 15-20cm (6-8in) above ground-level and apply a slow-release balanced fertiliser and a mulch of well-rotted garden compost around the plant, avoiding the immediate crown.

Daphne odora 'Aureomarginata' (daphne)

Daphne odora ‘Aureomarginata’ (daphne) was £29.99 now £14.99
Position: full sun or partial shade Soil: moderately fertile, well-drained, humus-rich soil Rate of growth: slow-growing Flowering period: January to March Hardiness: borderline hardy (may need winter protection) Clusters of small, sweetly scented, pale pink flowers open from purple-pink buds in January among lustrous, lance-shaped, dark green leaves with yellow margins. The flowers are followed by spherical, red fruit. This evergreen shrub thrives in a sunny, sheltered position where its handsome, variegated foliage will brighten the winter garden. Try it at the edge of a mixed border or next to a path where its intoxicating fragrance can be appreciated. Garden care: Keep pruning to a minimum since the plant is susceptible to die-back. Where necessary after flowering, lightly trim to remove misplaced branches and maintain a compact habit.

Cast iron brazier with grill

A lovely solid little brazier with a supporting grill for supporting pots, pans or a skottel. The bowl shape is simple and classic. Only for outdoor use.

Indian outdoor brazier fire pit

Indian outdoor brazier fire pit was £199.99 now £179.99
When we exhibited this at a trade show, there was a company that specilised in outdoor braziers a few stands away. Towards the end of the fair the owner came over and said ‘How did you manage to source that antique brazier so cheap?’ We thought it would be unfair to tell him that it was a copy. So we said ‘It is amazingly good, isn’t it!’ Made of iron with a waxed lacquer. After some use the product will rust, which will give the metal a natural protective layer. Dimensions: diameter 80cm x height 40cm

Dancook 9000 charcoal barbecue brazier

Dancook 9000 charcoal barbecue brazier was £199.99 now £179.99
A beautifully designed all-rounder, which is a very stylish way to heat your patio on cooler evenings. It is a safer option when using around children, as the edges of the brazier don’t heat up, which also means it easy to move about. Made from rust-proof stainless steel with an aluminium frame, it also comes with a heavy duty steel grill, which instantly turns it into a good sized barbeque. A high quality bit of kit, which is built to last, it can burn either charcoal or wood for fuel. For more images, just click on the top picture and browse through.
