Hostas

Thursday, April 19th, 2012

Jersey Plants Direct has these great hostas.
I’ve always found the slugs like young hostas so it’s worth either putting pellets down too or getting some nemaslug

The nemaslug product just waters in and allows all your plants to get a really good start without any slugs eating them! Well worth the money if you love your garden.
You could create a permanent bed of hostas as they look great together. They’re happy in shade too which makes them a wonderful plant to have.

Mixed Tomatoes Pack 12 Jumbo Ready Plants £9.99
Perfect for tomato lovers – a great mix!

Gardener’s Delight: This variety of tomatoes is a prolific fruiting tomato that produces long trusses of sweet tasting rich flavoured cherry tomatoes. A popular and reliable variety.
I grow this one for normal tomatoes. It always does well.

Tumbling Tom Red F1: This variety of Tomato is perfect for hanging baskets and containers producing an abundance of sweet Cherry Tomatoes throughout the summer. It needs little training, just let it grow and enjoy.
Ideal if you love cherry tomatoes

Tomato Shirley F1: This established variety of Tomato is a cordon type and is ideal for growing in growbags. Can be grown both indoors and outdoors in warmer climates. Producing heavy crops of tasty, disease resistant tomatoes.”

These vegetable plants can be grown on or planted straight out as you choose once the risk of frost has gone.”
I’d keep them in the greenhouse though and heat it when it’s going to be cold at night – at least until the risk of frost has gone. That’s nearly June here!

You could sow your own seeds and pot them on but this saves you the time. Great if you’d rather be doing other things!

Jumbo Ready Plants are grown in individual cells and measure approximately 8-12cm in height from the root of the plant to the top of the stem. They are despatched later in the season as we have grown them to a larger size for you and are ready to be planted straight out into the garden
