Photinia x fraseri Pink Marble (‘Cassin’) (photinia) was £11.99 now £9.99
Position: full sun or partial shade Soil: most fertile, well-drained soils Rate of growth: average to fast growing Flowering period: April and May Hardiness: frost hardy (needs winter protection) A recently introduced cultivar that was discovered in the US and is believed to be a sport of ‘Red Robin’. It has variegated cream and green leaves, which when they first emerge are flushed in pinky red, so overall the effect is very colourful. A handsome evergreen, it makes a fine stand-alone specimen and as it is quite tolerant of hard pruning, it also works wonderfully well as an informal hedge. Garden care: To encourage a profusion of bright young leaves in late-spring or summer shorten the stems of established specimens by up to 15cm (6in), to just above an outward-facing bud in spring. Apply a generous 5-7cm (2-3in) mulch of well-rotted garden compost or manure around the base of the plant in early spring.

Skyscraper Jumbo Lilies x 15 Large Bulbs 3 Pack Of 5 was £14.99 now £7.49
These incredible Skyscraper Lilies grow so tall they look like trees! In their first year they will reach up to 1.5m (5ft) tall, but in future years, once they are fully established, they will get even taller up to 6 or even 7 foot tall eventually! These large flowered beauties arise as a consequence hybridisation between Oriental and Trumpet strains of lily hence the marriage of both species characteristics. Every flower carries a wonderful heady perfume and each individual stem can carry well over 20 blooms, which can measure well over 15cm (6in) across. This collection comprises of 15 top sizes bulbs, 3 of each variety, the same as used by commercial flower growers in Holland: – Belladonna – gorgeous soft lemon yellow – Robina – deep pink, verging towards berry purple – Cocossa a gorgeous white lily. Grow all 5 in large pots about 15cm apart, or in groups in garden borders. They have very strong stems, so should not need support. Cut them for the long-lasting displays in the vase, or leave them to marvel at in your garden. Allow them to die down naturally after flowering, and they will build up reserves for even bigger and better displays the following year. Fully Winter hardy, they will last for many years.
