A long-flowering, semi-evergreen shrub that looks fabulous in a mixed border, Abelia 'Tricolour Charm' (R) has attractive, glossy, multi-coloured leaves and fragrant white flowers. Ideal for a cottage-style garden, this shrub is remarkable due to its tricolour foliage in shades of green, cream and pink, tinged with yellow in spring. Its perfumed white flowers appear from July and last well into September. Compact in habit, Tricolour Charm forms a neat shrub that is perfect for growing in a pot on the terrace or balcony in a sunny, sheltered position. Easy to grow and hardy to -12°C, it's best grown in the shelter of a wall or towards the back of a border to encourage it to hang on to its leaves. Supplied as an established plant in a 9cm pot, ready for immediate planting.
Wonderful golden yellow semi-double flowers. These sturdy plants are larger than other plugs so they can be planted straight out in the garden provided that there are no forecasts of frost.
Clematis montana 'Grandiflora' is a deciduous climber and a wonderful choice for early season flowers in the garden, covered in masses of pure white flowers in May and June. Plant 'Grandiflora' anywhere where it can climb and this extremely vigorous clematis will quickly establish itself and begin to clamber up supports, over pergolas and arches and up into trees, cloaking them in a sea of white. The fast growth makes this an ideal plant for covering unsightly fences and sheds or grown as screening on a trellis. Montanas should be pruned - if necessary - soon after blooming ceases removing only wood from previous years. New summer growth will bear next year's flowers and should be trained and tied in accordingly.

You can therefore plant this in the garden with confidence, for stunning displays for many years to come.

In spring the colours are a mix of green and yellow which intensifies in summer and then transforms to orange and red hues for Autumn. Delicate funnel shaped pink flowers are produced from June to October attracting butterflies and bees. This plant is semi evergreen so may lose its leaves in the winter however fresh foliage will reappear in the spring. Supplied in a 13cm pot.
An absolute gem of a winter flowering plant, little seen but a really good winter garden plant, not grown widely enough. In late winter and early spring, before there's much colour about at all, even before daffodils, it produces intriguing yellow and cream flowers, lightly scented, smothered over bare stems, as flowers are produced before the leaves. It is a relative of the Daphne, sharing it's preference for cool, lightly shaded spots. Martin distinctly remembers being blown away by the first sight and smell of this plant, a large specimen on a remote Dutch Nursery, on a wet, windy and grey February afternoon, but finding much stock has been a challenge. Now we have some, it deserves a space in many gardens.
