This colossal beefsteak tomato is the largest new variety on the market. Gigantomo marries the much-loved flavour of heritage varieties with the inbuilt vigour and disease-resistance of modern cultivars, making it the must-have tomato of 2016. Plants are disease resistant, strong and productive. With fruits weighing upwards of 3lbs each, just one of these tasty tomatoes will feed a whole family!
This superb all-rounder will produce plentiful crops of medium-sized, bright red, juicy fruits whether placed outdoors or in a greenhouse. Easy to grow and having good resistance to disease, it is a great choice for beginners or experienced gardeners who want a harvest to be proud of. An indeterminate, or cordon type tomato, it will fruit most prolifically when side shoots are pinched out to encourage an upright central stem that requires a support. Each plant will then produce a succession of fruit-laden trusses that ripen from July onwards to give a continuous crop. If left unpruned they will still fruit well, although these will be smaller than those of pruned plants and will ripen later in the season. Being a winner of the RHS Award of Garden Merit, 'Alicante' is a dependable variety that rewards with super quality fruits full of that traditional rich tomato flavour. Their natural sweetness makes them a delicious component in salads and sandwiches and also ideal as a cooking ingredient. Green or immature fruits picked at the end of the season will ripen well on the windowsill - or even make a tasty green tomato chutney.

Birds need high energy food to keep them healthy, especially in the colder months. This clever lantern design fat ball feeder comes complete with a squirrel guard to make sure the food is reserved for your feathered friends. Feeding Guide: Make food available throughout the year, particularly during the breeding, nesting and fledging periods. Help reduce the risk of bacterial build-up by having several feeding areas and changing them regularly. Consider different foods and feeding methods. Some birds can hang from feeders while others may prefer table or ground feeding.Always provide a continuous supply of fresh food as wild birds will come to depend on the food that you put out for them. Only put out as much food as will be consumed in one or two days. Locate feeding stations near cover so that theyre easily accessible, but not too close if there is a risk of predators. Allow for a greater height if needed. Always provide fresh, clean water. Store food in a cool, dry place.Feeding Hygiene: Feeding stations should be regularly cleaned with warm water and, as recommended by the RSPB, a 5% disinfectant solution. Prevent build-up of droppings and food debris in the wider feeding area.Safety: Please keep this product out of reach of children and pets. Wear protective gloves when cleaning feeding stations. Wash hands after handling. Please ensure you read all instructions and packaging before use. 1x listing supplied. Colours may vary slightly.
