You really can't beat that evocative, fresh pine fragrance that a real Christmas Tree brings to the home - artificial trees just don't have the same effect! Just imagine being cozied up next to your tree on a cold winter evening, warm and surrounded by the glorious scent of Christmas. Abies nordmanniana, the Nordmann Pine is the hugely popular non-needle drop variety, and rapidly becoming a traditional favourite. One of the most popular Christmas trees, the Nordmann Pine has soft dark green needles and low needle drop - so they're really easy to handle and move around - you don't have to worry about a face full of prickly needles as you decorate your tree! This in itself is one of the most satisfying moments over the Christmas period, and with the natural lines of a real tree, making that final decision on where to put that last decoration really shows your Christmas prowess - decorate like the boss you know you are! Full, lush and shapely, there is nothing better than a real Christmas Tree at Christmas time, where it will fill your home with gorgeous colour and pine-scented aroma - and did you know that the scent of pine can have a positive effect on your mood, reducing anxiety and stress? Also, from an environmental angle, real trees are the way to go. According to the Carbon Trust, a real Christmas tree has a significantly lower carbon footprint than an artificial tree, especially if it is disposed of properly, by chipping or burning. Easy to care for, you can keep your tree in tip-top condition by placing it in a stand with a water reservoir and adding water regularly. Also keep it away from heat sources such as fires and radiators. So they're eco-friendly, relieve stress and look and smell fabulous , so do you really need another reason to buy a real tree? - oh, yes one more...you're going to have it in your home for around three weeks, so you really don't want to be staring at that dusty, moth-eaten artificial one that has sat in the loft for 50 weeks... We supply a 8-10 year old cut tree, 1.35-1.65m in height, netted and ready for you to decorate your home. Please note that your tree will need a stand which is not supplied with this item.

We like to bring our customers plants that we call 'good-doers', and this lovely Viburnum certainly is that - combining four distinct periods of garden interest in one easy-to-grow hardy shrub. Awarded the Best New Plant at RHS Chelsea Flower Show in 2015, 'Kilimanjaro Sunrise' erupts into flower, with tiered layers of white lacecap blooms in April and May - giving rise to its sometimes used common name of the Wedding Cake Tree. These age a lovely blush pink, often with many overlapping tones on the plant at once. This is followed in summer by bright red berries, which help feed the birds and other wildlife, before it surprises you again with a smaller autumn re-flowering. Then, in a final blaze of glory, it sheds its bright autumn leaves, as it hibernates in preparation for another year of garden thrills. Supplied as an established plant in a 3L pot., Viburnum Sunrise is a compact growing shrub at just 2.5m (8ft) tall and 1.5m (5ft) wide after 7-10 years, it makes a lovely mixed border specimen.

Not as recent marketing would have you believe a plant that has been created for men, but rather a new and exciting development in succulent breeding that is taking the gardening world by storm. A cross between the Manfreda and the Agave, Mangaves are becoming increasingly popular as the interest in Xeric landscaping grows - the process of gardening that reduces or eliminates the need for supplemental moisture from watering. Manfredas have rosettes of coloured leaves branching from a very short stem, often with creamy, tubular flowers at the end of a long stalk. Agaves on the other hand are well known for their strong succulent leaves that form large rosettes. These interesting hybrids combine the best features of both types: the better growth rate and the interesting patterns and colours of Manfreda, and the habit and refinement of Agave. Varieties can be spotted, blotched or plain green in various shades and with an interesting texture, they can be a bit pointy, but definitely not as prickly as a cactus. Some of the varieties have really interesting leaf shape too, from slim and long to short and broad and wavy or straight too. 'Mission to Mars' is a striking variety of Mangave with intense red coloration to the leaves which gives rise to its name. The thick green leaves are heavily speckled with burgundy red and form a gently arching habit with margins that curl upward. This highlights the cinnamon-coloured spines giving the plant an appearance much like a tropical bromeliad. Compact in growth and visually stunning, Mangaves make a perfect patio plant, sitting happily in a pot through the summer on your decking or balcony, they will then make a perfect houseplant through the winter in a bright room. All varieties should be watered only sparingly as they are ideally suited to dessert, arid conditions and are lovers of warm temperatures - they make an ideal specimen for a greenhouse or as a houseplant for a bright rooms - indeed anything less than 65°F will result in the plant becoming dormant. Supplied as an established plant in a 15cm pot, ready for immediate potting on. Eventual height and width: 25cm x 55cm (10 x 22in).
