We are proud to support one of Britain's most recognisable and treasured heritage sites, Castle Howard. This decadent arrangement is inspired by the magnificent 8,800-acre estate. Working with Castle Howard, a place like no other, we have produced an arrangement designed to impress. Introducing exclusively to the Castle Howard Collection for this Mother's Day, The Lady Mary Howard bouquet. Lady Mary Howard was the Daughter of the 6th Earl and Countess of Carlisle who's portrait adorns in the Turquoise Drawing Room within Castle Howard. In the stunning portrait of Lady Mary Howard that was commissioned from the Yorkshire artist John Jackson we see Lady Mary Howard wearing an elegant white dress with a fashionable blue waist ribbon and matching shoes, while holding a small posey of pink roses. These inspired this beautiful bouquet, including beautiful Sweet Avalanche Roses, Pink Germini, Pink Tulips finished with Pink Bouvardia. Proceeds from this bouquet will be passed to Castle Howard to contribute to the continued preservation and conservation of this beautiful Heritage site and to contribute to its maintenance to help ensure it can be enjoyed for many years to come.

Whether you are looking for a splash of colour or a gorgeous houseplant, then this easy-to-grow amaryllis (or Hippeastrum) is just the plant for you. Even though they usually flower in early spring, amaryllis are best known as a house plant for Christmastime, so plant them from mid-October for festive blooms. They also make a wonderful Christmas gift, so your friends and relations can plant them and look forward to a stunning indoor display to brighten up the long days between winter and spring. This bulb is supplied ready to sprout leaves and burst into flower - all you need is a sturdy pot, some good-quality compost, water, and a little care to raise a fascinating flowering plant. Planted and kept in a warm room, they will bloom in around 6-8 weeks and provide interest throughout as the stems steadily emerge and blooms unfurl. This large bulb will produce one or two strong stems, each bearing three or four dazzling red trumpet blooms. Why not plant several bulbs together in a larger pot for a stunningly unusual display - or to have plenty for cutting as a trendy addition to a modern floral vase or arrangement. Supplied as a large bulb, size 26/28, ready to plant up.
Rosemary is a versatile herb, providing evergreen interest all year round, fragrant leaves for use in cooking, and nectar-rich flowers for bees in spring. Grow rosemary along a path, either in a well-draining pot or plant-ed in the soil once it matures, so every time you brush past, the leaves release their aromatic oils. Overall, rosemary requires little maintenance during the year except cutting back after flowering to prevent plants becoming straggly and woody. Save the trimmings to propagate new plants or dry them for cooking. Light and Water Rosemary grows best in a sunny, sheltered spot in well-drained soil. It can struggle in heavy clay soils, par-ticularly in winter, when the ground tends to be wetter. Although frost resistance, the combination of the cold and waterlogged soil can kill immature rosemary plants. We suggest you move them inside during the winter. As they prefer to be on the drier side a terracotta pot will suit it well as they allow the soil to dry out faster. We also suggest you grow rosemary in well-drained soil in full sun. Young plants can suffer if their roots are sitting in wet soil in winter, so it’s a good idea to grow rosemary in a container for a couple of years before planting into the garden. Cut back annually (after blooming) to prevent the plant from becoming too woody. These cutting can then be dried out for cooking or propagated. Water when the soil is dry to the touch, water thoroughly and allow it to drain and dry completely before wa-tering again.
