While you may have a perception of dahlias as being old-fashioned, and something that your grandad grew when you were younger, they have actually been enjoying a renaissance over the last few years, mainly because they provide such stunning colour and value for money in the late summer and autumn. So easy to grow, Dahlias are supplied as tubers, packed full of energy to burst into growth in spring. Plant in pots or in the garden and they will get away quickly from May, producing a mass of bright colours which will fill your garden as summer turns to autumn. Our collection of cactus dahlias will give you large, double blooms with narrow, spiky petals and each pack provides 5 mixed colour tubers, which will reach around a metre tall, and produce plenty of flowers each. These can be cut for the house, or left to enjoy outdoors. Dead-heading will prolong flowering well into autumn. Plants will survive milder winters, but we recommend lifting the tubers and storing somewhere dry and frost-free over winter, or left in pots if that's how you choose to grow them. These blousy Dahlias make a great addition to any autumn garden and their blooms will bring colour as everything else starts to fade.
Currently bang on trend with their own Instagram following, this golden barrel cactus is suitable for beginners and experienced indoor gardeners. Cacti have evolved for arid living - they are used to very little water, hot days and chilly nights, so are perfectly adapted to modern home living!

Ideal to get kids interested in gardening, this cactus is ready to place anywhere you want, from windowsills to desks and shelves.

Remember that cacti are prickly beggars always wear protective clothing when handling.Care GuideAlways use specialist cactus compost when potting. This is sandier and grittier than ordinary compost, which helps keep the plants dry. Keep plants frost-free. Although some will tolerate low temperature, in general they need to be kept above 8-10C, so they make ideal houseplants. While cacti survive on little water, they will not thrive. From April to September, water weekly, allowing the compost to soak up water and drain freely. Feed with a general-purpose feed at 1/4 strength once a fortnight. From October to March, water only when the compost has dried, and then only enough to stop plants shrivelling. Keep your plants in bright but not direct sunlight; an east or west-facing windowsill is ideal.This product is offered for sale for home delivery exclusively via our website only.

Create your very own desert theme in your home with this stunning faux potted Cactus! Standing at 23inchs tall it is a beautiful plant for any room in the home, made to the highest standard our artisan creators have made this plant to look as real as possible.
Commonly known as the “Prickly Pear” cactus, this a decorative variety of Opuntia which produces the edi-ble oval-shaped yellow-red fruit. Opuntia family of cacti are known for their unusual shapes and this one is no exception. With large thorny pads and oval bulbus fruits, this is one of the more alien-looking plants in our collection. Light and Water The plant likes a sunny position and can be placed outdoors in the summer to receive more heat. However hardy this plant is, it is not suitable for UK climates. In winter, the plant likes it dry and cool, so you should bring this plant indoors during winter, or keep it indoors all year round near a sunny windowsill. It prefers di-rect sunlight to indirect light. Prickly pears are extremely drought tolerant. During the growing season don’t water newly propagated pads for the first month. After that, water every two to four weeks for the first year — twice a month in summer and once a month other times of the year/ Prickly pears prefer alkaline to neutral soil if you need to repot them. More importantly, the soil needs to drain well, as residual moisture or puddling can cause the plant to rot.
