Growing your own veg is the most satisfying way of bringing top-quality, super healthy food to your plate - at a fraction of the cost of supermarket produce. Brussels sprouts are highly nutritious, too, being an excellent source of vitamins A, B and C - and with freshness you can't beat when picked straight from your garden. Considered to be one of the very best early Brussels Sprouts there is, 'Maximus' will be ready to pick from September all the way into December. The buttons are tight and smooth, and remain that way for month after month when left on the plant until you need them. Easy to grow and reliable, this heavy cropping, long-harvesting variety has good resistance to mildew too! 'Maximus' will thrive in a sunny or semi-shaded position in well-cultivated, fertile, moist but well-draining soil. Fully deserving its coveted RHS Award of Garden Merit, you can be sure that this is a proven garden performer, guaranteed to be suitable for UK gardeners at every level of experience. You can therefore plant this in the garden with confidence and look forward to a wonderful harvest. Supplied as 12 plug plants, ready to grow on or plant out, growing to 75cm.
A highly attractive feature tree, Pomegranates are well-known, although not as widely grown in our gardens as they should be. With deep green foliage and bright orange flowers in summer, your pomegranate will look great for years to come, with its shiny fruits ripening in the sun and providing a beautiful contrast to its leaves. A tough, deciduous shrub, Pomegranate 'Maxima Rubra' is completely hardy when established, and will easily tolerate our British winters, down to -8ºC. For best results, grow in a warm and sunny aspect in a pot where it can be moved around as necessary before planting out when its trunk has thicker wood. Pomegranates are super-healthy and packed with antioxidants - the fruits can be used in cooking sweet or savoury dishes and taste great when made into refreshing, fragrant pomegranate juice! Plants like a rich soil with plenty of grit and gravel for good drainage. Although drought-tolerant when established, do keep your plant well-watered and it will flower throughout the summer. Pomegranate bushes love hot summers and your bush will thrive in a sunny spot in the shelter of a building or ideally up against a stone or brick wall that will radiate heat back to the plant, helping to ripen the fruit and protect it from any extreme winter weather. Supplied as an established plant in a 2.5L pot, ready for planting straight out. Will reach 2-3m tall in 10 years.
