Dorset farm owner to give vegetable advice at Haskins

Dorset farm owner to give vegetable advice at Haskins

Corinne Kirkham, owner manager of Windrush Farm Growers in Wimborne, is set to visit customers at Haskins Garden Centre in West End on Saturday April 29, to give hints and tips on growing vegetables at home.

From 10am to 2pm Corinne will be on hand at the centre in West End to answer any vegetable based questions.

Having set up her business in 1980, in Horton, Corinne learnt her gardening skills from her father and for more than 30 years Windrush Farm Growers has traded with Haskins.

Alasdair Urquhart, plant advisor at Haskins Garden Centre, said: “We’re really pleased to have Corinne join us at the centre. Windrush Farm Growers are great friends of Haskins and we’re sure that Corinne can provide advice on any vegetable question.

“Growing your own at home is increasingly important these days. Often we’ll hear of national or international shortages of certain crops across the world and it is really worrying, but by being educated on how to grow your favourite vegetables at home, it can be a rewarding and fun activity and you’re saving money in the long run.”

Haskins Garden Centres is based in Ferndown in Dorset, West End in Southampton and Roundstone and Snowhill in West Sussex.

The Marvel of Peru (Mirabilis jalapa) - pack of 10 roots

The Marvel of Peru (Mirabilis jalapa) – pack of 10 roots was £7.99 now £4.99
The unusual and immensely pretty Mirabilis jalapa opens its gorgeous flowers in mid-afternoon on sunny days in the height of summer – only to close them again at night, hence one of its common names ‘The Four O’Clock Plant’. Incredibly, each plant produces its flowers in a mix of colours – from deep-magenta, to pure-white, bicolours, and even bright-yellow – it’s no wonder its called the ‘Marvel of Peru’! Plant this beauty in beds and borders, and it will form a neat, bushy shrub that will grow to about 1m (3ft) tall. Alternatively, plant them in deep pots, like carrots would grow (you will see what we mean when you get them!)
