The amazing and hot off the presses New Basket Watering Fountain kit solves a problem many of us experience in last summer's heat wave - getting and keeping enough water where it is needed in your hanging baskets. It's the latest innovation by the clever folks at Plantopia - they who invented the best-selling Easy Fill Hanging Baskets - this clever device takes water to the heart of the basket, slowly releasing it where it is needed in the root zone, through small holes that drop water out. Designed to specially clip fit onto the bottom of 12in and 15in Easy Fill baskets, they will also do the same job on traditional wire mesh, rattan or other baskets, and even larger pots and containers too. The flared funnel end sits neatly and unobtrusively on the edge of the basket, making it easy to fill with a hose or watering can, quickly getting feed and water to the inside of the basket - hard to reach when watering from above. Saves you time and water too! A great value, Great British invention that every proud hanging basket grower should have. Sure to win Gardening Awards this season.

A tall-growing, evergreen and vigorous bamboo, Pseudosasa japonica produces a dense growth of hollow canes with arrow-shaped, shiny green leaves. Spikes of greeny-brown flowers can appear at any time of year. Forming attractive and long-lasting clumps, it is ideal for hedges or screening - or even as a windbreak for patio or barbecue areas. One of the fastest-growing bamboos, it is slowly invasive if left unchecked, so best in large pots, or with plenty of space in lawns. If you are planting near a wall or foundations, remember to use a physical barrier. It is tolerant of hot summers and cold winters, although leaves can be damaged by extreme cold and wind. Damaged leaves can be removed in spring as the new shoots emerge. Very hardy, it needs little care, but make sure your plants are well-watered in summer and don't let them dry out if you are growing yours in a pot. Supplied as 2 x 60-70cm tall plants in a 1L pot ready to plant out or re-pot.
