As a tree With its parrot-red, glossy young foliage, and large, rounded heads of ivory flowers, this versatile evergreen shrub is deservedly popular. It colours up best in full sun, and will usually only flower in sunny conditions, although it makes a handsome background evergreen shrub in partial shade, too. It can cope with hard pruning, so can be trimmed to form an informal hedge or clipped into strong shapes. The flowers appear in mid and late spring, and are sometimes followed by spherical red fruit. In frost-prone areas, train as a wall shrub against a south or west- facing wall.

potato ‘Rocket’ (PBR) (potato – extra early salad, Scottish basic seed potato) was £8.99 now £7.99

Position: sun-partial shade Soil: fertile, well drained Rate of growth: fast-growing Harvesting period: early to mid June Hardiness: protect tubers from frost ‘Rocket’ is a very heavy cropping variety with pure white flesh, which is waxy and soft at first digging. Many customers have been delighted by the earliness, ease of culture and size of crop. It also has good all round disease resistance including golden eelworm. Garden care: As soon as the potato tubers have been delivered you should unpack them and start the chitting (sprouting) process. Place them in single layer in a seed tray without compost and leave in a light, cool area protected from frost. This can be started about six weeks before you intend to plant them. Early varieties can be planted out under frost fleece protection, but the later varieties should be planted after the worst frosts have passed in your area – this is generally mid March to mid April. Dig a trench 8 – 13cm (3 – 5in) deep adding a general purpose fertiliser to the bottom of the trench. Plant the potato tubers in the trenches about 30cm (12in) apart, being careful not to knock the shoots off the tubers, and keeping the shoots facing upwards. Then lightly cover with soil. As the plants get to around 20cm (8in) tall you need to bank up the soil around the plant, so the soil covers the bottom two thirds of the plant. Watering your plants well will help improve crop yield and discourage potato scab.

Bulb planting auger £12.99
These soil-digging augers are a brilliant way to plant bulbs, particularly if you have heavier soils. They are also great if you have loads to do, as you can drill the planting holes in record time. The best way to use them is to dig the holes in stages, lifting it out once or twice so the loosened soil is deposited next to the hole. Once the hole is deep enough, pop a bulb in the bottom (pointy side up) and then refill it with the loose soil. Its an ingenoius tool that can also be used for aerating the compost heap. The techie bit: They have been designed to use with a cordless drill with a voltage between 12 to 18 volts (not included). They have a ‘hex’ end, which will stop them slipping around in the drill chuck. To be on the safe side and to avoid twisting your wrist (if you hit a rock or tree root), the torque settings on the chuck of the drill should be set on medium. We offer three sizes for different bulbs: Snowdrops and anemones (small) Ø 1.25 x L 18″ Crocus and iris (medium) Ø 1.75 x L 30″ Daffodils and tulips (large) Ø 2.75 x L 24″
