Party fire log was £13.99 now £11.99
These logs are a beautiful way to light up summer evening parties, or take the edge of chilly evenings when you still want to sit outside. They are made from seasoned pine, which has been harvested from managed forests in Eastern Poland. Each log has then been split using the same technique that the Swedish Soldiers discovered during the 17th century. This enables the fire to breathe and ensures that it will burn for approximately 2 hours in a controlled way. How to use the ‘Fire log’ Place the log in a safe spot, away from any flamamble materials, buildings or trees Place it on a fireproof surface such as a fire basket, paving slab or gravel bed. Remove any wrapping and the label from the log Light it from above using the log-lighter (this comes with the log) and never use any fire accelerants. Enjoy your evening! Safety Info This log is to be used outside only Never touch or try to move the log once it is lit Keep children supervised at all times Make sure the remains of the log are extinguished with water after use Approximate dimensions: Height: 50.1 cm Diameter: up to 25cm Please note diameter sizes may vary.
Dracaena ‘Lemon Lime’ (dragon plant) was £12.99 now £11.99
Position: prefers light shade, but close to a window Soil: fertile: good potting compost Rate of growth: average to fast Hardiness: tender (indoors only) Current height: approximately 50cm (including pot) This is an undemanding houseplant, with colourful foliage that is a mixture of green, cream and lime stripes. As it grows, it forms a tree-like stem with the foliage on top, and as it matures it will usually start to form sideshoots. A good choice if you are looking for something that will eventually get quite tall, without taking up too much floorspace. Home care: Water well in the growing season, but less so in winter. Misting the leaves with water will help keep the humidity levels high, as well as keeping the leaves dust-free. Repot in spring every couple of years and keep temperatures above 10C in winter.

Crocus border spade was £49.99 now £44.99
If you are going to do even a small amount of work in the garden, it’s better to use a tool that feels good in the hand. The old fashioned D-shaped handle is made from Beech and has been shaped and sanded so that it feels like it was made just for you (the key is the way they ’round’ the insides of the D). These tools are the result of our collaboration with Bulldog tools. Bulldog have a deserved reputation for the robust, no-nonsense, it-does-what-it-says-on-the- -tin garden staple. The metal they use is forged steel which, like all traditional tools, is immensely durable and will develop a lovely rust coloured patina over time. So not only are they incredibly robust- feeling nice and heavy in the hand – they’ll make light work of hard graft and will be your companion for many years to come. Height: 935mm Width: 145mm

Canvas hammock – tutti frutti was £49.99 now £44.99
This bright and colourful string hammock will provide hours of relaxation in the garden. This attractive hammock provides a cosy and comfy space for you to sit back and enjoy all your hard work this summer. These hammocks are all completely handmade with each and every stitch of the crochet hammocks being made in El Salvador by artisans, who try to keep their culture alive by applying traditional production techniques. This traditional string hammock can be hung from between two trees, posts or garden wall so long as the hardware and hanging strings are strong enough to hold the weight of the person using it. Please note the approx. capacity of the swing hammock is 120kg but please make sure secure and strong before use. How to hang the string hammock: Between two trees or posts: tie a strong rope around the tree, make a knot, then reach the hammock’s eye and make another knot. Ideally, supports, posts or trees should be 25-30cm further apart than the length of the hammock. Prior to using your hammock please check all knots are tight and secure and carefully sit in it to make sure it has been installed properly. Although these fabrics are mildew and fade resistant, avoid it’s prolonged exposure to sunlight and rain. Over time, this would weaken the fabric and strings. When not in use, we suggest your bring the hammock indoors. Dry thoroughly before storage. Please note: rope and fixings not included.
