The Ultimate Orchard Collection

The Ultimate Orchard Collection £39.99
Having one fruit tree in your garden in nice, but SIX is much better! Our ultimate fruit collection will provide you with a fruit medley of harvest opportunities with one each of: Apple Lord Lambourne, Cherry Regina, Plum Victoria, Apple Braeburn, Pear Conference and a Damson Merryweather Tree. DELIVERED TO YOUR DOOR The trees are supplied as healthy, dormant, bare root plants, delivered in specially designed protective packaging to ensure they arrive in perfect condition. Trees will be between 4-6′ high, some with side branches developing, but please note that size can vary considerably due to the characteristics of different varieties. All come complete with comprehensive growing instructions. ROOTSTOCKS Most fruit trees are grafted onto a closely related species ‘rootstock’ to predetermine the size and vigour of the tree and give the best possible yields. We have carefully chosen semi-dwarfing rootstocks (all of which are certified virus-free) to ensure that our trees grow, crop well and remain of manageable size in your garden. POLLINATION Many of our apple, pear and plum fruit tree varieties will also pollinate themselves satisfactorily, however, the best fruit set is achieved by choosing at least two varieties from a species (unless your neighbours have trees that will act as pollinators!)

Oleo-Mac Artik 72 ELDT Dual-Stage Snow Blower £1199.00
A seriously powerful machine with an insatiable appetite for deep, compacted snow, this high-specification 70cm snow-blower from Italian brand Oleo-Mac will prove an invaluable purchase for homeowners looking to keep substantial grounds clear this winter.It’s a two-stage machine, with a heavy-duty serrated auger first breaking-up snow and ice, before a high-speed impellor throws it between 10 and 15m clear of the work area via a variable angle ejector-chute that’s controlled manually from the operating position. The Efco Artik 72 ELDT Dual-Stage Snow Blower runs on high-traction caterpillar tracks that ensure it will handle all manner of surfaces and conditions; and which combine with an eight-speed transmission (6 + 2) to make the negotiation of awkward corners and tight turns a breeze.It’s equipped with heated handgrips for long periods of comfortable snow-clearance; and it’s fitted with a high-output headlight for safe operation in typically murky winter conditions.Driving the Efco Artik 72 ELDT is a 13hp (375cc) Loncin that’s been specifically designed to handle sub-zero temperatures; and which boasts an overhead-valve design for a reduction in fuel-consumption, noise, vibration and emissions.An electric starter makes the ignition process fast and hassle-free; while convenient dash-mounted controls make using the machine simple and enjoyable.
