Exclusive to MowDirect and coming from the leading Italian garden machinery brand, the Oleo-Mac G55-VBX Variable Speed Petrol Lawnmower has enhanced manoeuvrability, high quality components and superb, user-friendly functionality at a price that might surprise.Powered by a reliable powerful 190cc 650 Series four-stroke engine from world leading manufacturer Briggs & Stratton, the Oleo-Mac G55-VBX delivers great cutting performance time and time again.

The engine also offers high torque at any speed ensuing a top-class performance on any lawn.The extra wide cutting width, at 55cm means faster coverage of larger lawns and four-in-one cutting is guaranteed with this model. You can use side discharge for tougher, longer grass, cut-and-collect, discharge to the rear without a collector and mulch, using re-cut clippings to nourish your lawn, all as standard.The ‘Hi-Wheel’ design means manoeuvrability is optimised and rougher terrain is traversed with ease with steering made simple and comfortable, ensuring better mowing as you turn to come back down the lawn.The wheels have ball bearings to keep the movement smoother for longer and the profiled grip tread ensures better movement over awkward ground. The rear mounted grass collector takes a massive 80 litres so you can cut for longer without stopping and it’s fabric construction ensures the best collection, allowing air through to prevent grass clumping together, even when it is damp. The plastic top prevents dust rising when the conditions are dry and a grass collector full indicator stops you from over-filling and spilling grass onto your newly cut lawn. There are more high-end features on this mower including the centralised cutting height adjustment for example. This operation is performed by an easy to hold side-mounted lever and there are 6 positions on offer from 25mm up to 82mm.

Crocus reduced the price on these items today

Helleborus x hybridus ‘Red Lady’ (Lady Series) (lenten rose / hellebore) was £6.99 now £2.99
Position: partial shade Soil: fertile, neutral to alkaline soil Rate of growth: average Flowering period: February to April Flower colour: shades of red Other features: all parts of the plant cause severe discomfort if ingested; the sap may cause skin irritation Hardiness: fully hardy In late winter, upright stems bearing up to five, single red flowers, appear above the evergreen foliage, creating interest in the garden at a time when most plants are completely dormant. The coarsely toothed, lustrous foliage will slowly spread to form open clumps, making it ideal groundcover in woodland gardens or naturalised planting schemes. They will tolerate some direct sun as long as the soil is reliably moist. Garden care: Add lots of well-rotted leaf mould or organic matter to the planting hole. Apply a generous 5-7cm (2-3in) mulch of well-rotted organic matter around the base of the plant in autumn and provide a top-dressing of general fertiliser each spring.

Snapper E3317523KVE Ride-On Mower £2299.00
The Snapper E3317523KVE has one of the largest cutting-widths of any domestic rear-engine ride-on (84cm), but retains the nimble manoeuvrability of its smaller counterparts. This combination makes it perfect for substantial lawns with trees; shrubs; beds; and garden furniture to mow around. With its 500cc Briggs & Stratton Intek Series 4175 overhead-valve engine, the Snapper E3317523KVE Ride-On Mower develops the sort of torque that’s essential when dealing with heavy grass-conditions. Full-pressure lubrication works to maximise engine-life; while a large-capacity 6.5-litre fuel-tank ensures plenty can be achieved between each top-up stop. Snapper have equipped the engine with an electric key ignition, so starting is fast and hassle-free. This feature-packed machine has a six-speed ‘shift-on-the-go’ gearbox, so it’s far less clucky in operation than lower-spec manual-drive machines where you have to stop to alter the ground-speed. Quick-response steering provides a more intuitive driving experience; while a split differential transmission helps to guard against turf-damage caused by wheel-spins. The gearing is encased in an oil-bath for reduced wear and therefore a longer working-life. Capable of bagging; side-discharging; or mulching (optional) grass-cuttings, the Snapper E3317523KVE has a mowing-mode for every eventuality. It has a luxury mid-back seat with ergonomic contouring for a comfortable drive; and it’s fitted with a set of anti-scalp deck-wheels that prevent turf-gouging on undulating ground. You can stand the Snapper E3317523KVE on its end for easier cleaning and more compact storage.
