Erigeron karvinskianus Profusion Mexican Fleabane
  • £9.99

Erigeron karvinskianus is a fully hardy perennial, most notable for its energetic display of colour-changing daisies. Plants form a low mound of grey-green leaves followed by an abundant display of small daisy flowers which open white before turning an eye-catching pinkish-purple, creating an ever-changing display of blooms with an unusual two-tone effect. Perfect for informal, relaxed garden settings, erigeron will fill your garden, pots and baskets with blossom from May to the first frosts, that's 6 months of colour EVERY YEAR! Also known as Mexican Fleabane, this amazingly versatile little gem is happy in sun or partial shade and thrives in any well-drained soil and is even happy in dry Mediterranean or gravel gardens. It really is an all-purpose plant, which is supported by its many awards, including the RHS Award of Garden Merit, which means it has been rigorously tested and declared a perfect garden plant - so you can be sure that it will perform. A multi-purpose garden filler, try using erigeron as an edging plant in your garden borders and paths, as an exuberant container plant, or even planted in the cracks in paving. Being a native of Mexico, it really doesn't mind a bit of drought when established. As well as the AGM, erigeron is recommended by the RHS as a Plant for Pollinators as it is a magnet for butterflies and bees so makes a really great addition to a wildlife garden. Supplied as 3 x 9cm potted plants ready to be planted out when all risk of frost is passed.

Citrus auranifolia - Mexican Lime 9cm
  • £9.99

Pick your very own delicious fresh Limes and add a Mediterranean feel to your home or garden! Packed full of vitamin C, these fruits are not only delicious, but good for you as well! Use your fruits in everything from freshly squeezed juices, to yummy desserts, and save money on supermarket prices! As well as tangy fruits, this superb lime tree will produce highly fragrant, white blossom during late spring and early summer. Wonderfully juicy, seedless limes will be ready for you to pick from October each year. To ensure you'll be picking delicious fruit year after year, we advise you keep your trees in their pots, and place in a sunny, sheltered position. Citrus tend not to thrive in centrally heated homes, so from mid-June to late September, give plants a treat and transfer them outside to make the most of the available sunshine - but remember they are not frost tolerant so will need bringing indoors into a conservatory, or by covering with a fleece plant cosy over winter. Supplied as an established plant in a 9cm pot, ready to grow on.
