Lofos Wine Red Vine Bedding Plants - Pack of 12 Jumbo Plugs

Lofos Wine Red Vine Bedding Plants – Pack of 12 Jumbo Plugs was £16.99 now £9.99
Lofos Wine Red will add a unique dimension to your summer hanging baskets the flowering trails will reach over 1.2m (4ft) long by the end of the season and almost touch the floor! The lovely trumpet-shaped flowers contrast brilliantly with the lush green foliage and look incredibly tropical. Lofos is a very fast grower, with the foliage tending to establish first and then, once the warm summer days arrive in June, the pretty flowers will commence, continuing thereafter right until first frost in the autumn. A very special and unusual summer flowering plant and if you have never grown it before, its one that is not to be missed!

Mirabelle de Nancy Plum Patio Fruit Tree in a 5L Pot 1.2m Tall

Mirabelle de Nancy Plum Patio Fruit Tree in a 5L Pot 1.2m Tall was £19.99 now £14.99
The Mirabelle is a cherry plum, a distinct fruit, and not a hybrid of the two. It produces masses of ruby red, larger than plum sized fruits, with a gorgeous deep-red flesh, and a sweet, very juicy distinctive peach-like taste, and small stone. It tastes good fresh, but is also fabulous for cooking and baking with. Popular in France, Mirabelles make a great addition to the fruit garden. They do flower early, so can be prone to early frosts, so plant in a sheltered sunny spot if possible – but they fruit early too in high Summer into September. Grown on ‘Pixy’ rootstock, they retain a more upright habit, making this ideal for smaller gardens – it will top out at 9-10ft in 10 years time, and make for easy picking. They are self-fertile too. Try one! The taste of Mirabelle’s is never forgotten.
