They can be grown on or planted straight out into the garden after the risk of frost has passed. Alcea ‘Chaters Double Mixed’ From rounded buds, many-petalled flowers open upwards from the base of the sturdy, upright stems. The blooms are attractive to bees and other beneficial insects and are particularly ornamental. Grows to 2.5m. Delphinium ‘Guardian Mixed’ Relatively compact in habit, these stout delphiniums are now widely grown by cut-flower specialists, because of their ability to bloom so quickly after being transplanted. They are however equally useful in the border, providing magnificent colums of colour for several weeks from early summer. Grows to 1.2m. Digitalis ‘Dalmatian Mixed’ A breakthrough in breeding has produced these new ‘Dalmatian’ foxgloves, which will usually flower in their first year. They form tidy clumps of foliage, but it is for the wonderful spires of thimble-like flowers that open upwards from the base of the spike in summer, that they are best-loved. Grows to 60cm.

Folding three in one cloche

Folding three in one cloche was £49.99 now £44.99
Using a very simple mechanism we have developed a new and versatile member to add to our popular protective wire cloche family. It folds and detaches so that it can be used in three different ways for different plants and stages in the garden: A long low cloche for rows of smaller plants or seedlings. A tall slender cloche for bigger plants and young shrubs. The two halves separate and can be used independently against a wall. In the winter months the two halves nest inside each other so that they don’t take up too much space in the potting shed. We have tried to make it the most useful wire cloche that you will ever have! Every detail has been considered – there are two small metal rings located on each side of cloche that meet in the different configurations. This allows you to safely lift both sides together by putting two fingers through the two rings. The cloche is produced from steel wire seamlessly woven around a rod frame and powder coated in crocus green. Measurements of one half Height: 63cm Width: 44cm Depth: 34cm
