Currently bang on trend with their own Instagram following, this golden barrel cactus is suitable for beginners as well as experienced indoor gardeners. Cacti have evolved for arid living so are used to very little water, hot days and chilly nights, making them perfectly adapted to modern home living! Needing very little in the way of care, cacti are the ideal houseplant for everyone. Happy in a sandy compost, with plenty of light and a little water now and again, your cactus will thrive as it is built to conserve moisture. It will tolerate being dry and will explode into growth when watered correctly (just don't overwater them). If you want to do less and get more out of your plants, then these cacti are ideal as they are slow-growing, and this specimen is the perfect living sculpture for home decoration. Ideal to get kids interested in gardening, this cactus is ready to place anywhere you want, from windowsills to desks and shelves. Supplied as a single plant, ready to go on a windowsill near you now! Please note that the decorative pot is not included. Remember that cacti are prickly beggars always wear protective clothing when handling.Care GuideAlways use specialist cactus compost when potting. This is sandier and grittier than ordinary compost, which helps keep the plants dry. Keep plants frost-free. Although some will tolerate low temperature, in general they need to be kept above 8-10C, so they make ideal houseplants. While cacti survive on little water, they will not thrive. From April to September, water weekly, allowing the compost to soak up water and drain freely. Feed with a general-purpose feed at 1/4 strength once a fortnight. From October to March, water only when the compost has dried, and then only enough to stop plants shrivelling. Keep your plants in bright but not direct sunlight; an east or west-facing windowsill is ideal.This product is offered for sale for home delivery exclusively via our website only.

This hardy, semi evergreen medicinal herb bears attractive, lobed, golden foliage and pretty white daisy flowers throughout summer. The flowers of Golden Feverfew can be dried and added to pot pourri for an aromatic fragrance. With its bright golden foliage and compact habit, this short-lived perennial makes an attractive ornamental plant too. Height and Spread: 30cm (12)
One of the most useful kitchen herbs for stews, stuffings and bouquet garni. This aromatic, evergreen thyme will grow almost anywhere in containers, rock gardens, borders, and even cracks in paving. Ideal for creating low, matt forming groundcover that will attract bees to the tiny, pink blooms. Thyme is particularly useful in coastal areas where it copes well with winds and dry conditions. Height: 30cm (12). Spread: 35cm (14).
Privet (Ligustrum ovalifolium) or Golden Privet is robust and very popular choice for topiary and hedging, and this golden form 'Aureum' is a colourful variation of the more usual green plants. Easy and reliable, privet is fairly quick growing and soon forms a decent hedge and will grow virtually anywhere from sun to shade. The glossy leaves are edged in golden-yellow and stay on the plants all year, except during periods of extreme heat or cold - so Aureum is a semi evergreen in nature although soon bounces back to lush growth in the spring, coming back bigger and bushier. When plants are allowed to grow untrimmed, they produce pretty creamy clusters of fragrant flowers in summer as an added bonus, which are attractive to butterflies and birds and these are followed by glossy black berries. The densely packed, small leaves mean that it is easily trimmed into shape so ideal for different shapes and sizes of hedge - trim it a couple of times during the summer to encourage the formation of a dense, formal garden hedge. The slim branches also mean that you can run over it with a pair of shears or light cutting equipment to get it into shape. Plus, if you leave your hedge and it gets out of hand, you can give it a good chop back and it quickly recovers. Privet will grow well virtually anywhere (although dislikes sitting in wet soil) and is suitable for coastal situations (although it may defoliate a bit in winter). Plants are resistant to pollution and so a really great choice for town gardens where other plants may not thrive so well. Supplied as 3 x established plants in 9cm pots, ready to plant out. For hedges plant 40cm (16') apart
'Golden Smaragd' is a wonderful variety of Thuja, evergreen conifers that grow with a naturally narrow, conical habit. Slow-growing, with sprays of bright yellow-green aromatic foliage, 'Golden Smaragd' is a handsome and colourful decorative tree, ideal as a specimen and perfect for bringing year-round height and structure to your beds and borders, and well suited to container growing too. Thuja and incredibly easy to grow, needs hardy any maintenance and its naturally slow growth means that it doesn't need regular trimming to keep it in shape, particularly useful if you're growing it as a hedge where it'll provide excellent screening but with little effort. It's also amazingly hardy, right down to -45°C, so there is no chance that it'll be damaged in even the harshest British winter, although protection from cold, drying winter winds when young will help it to establish. A versatile tree for any part of the garden, Thuja isn't fussy about soil and will thrive whether it's acid, alkaline or neutral, as long as it's well drained. Supplied as an established plant in a 9cm pot, ready for planting, growing up to 5m (16½ft) tall and 1.7m (5½ft) wide after 20 years.
The soft, bright golden-yellow foliage of Cupressus 'Goldcrest' will provide your garden with healthy colour all year round and (in keeping with its name) gives off a fresh, lemon scent when foliage is crushed or cut - which is said to deter biting insects from that area of your garden. In the depths of winter, the cooler temperatures give the trees a deeper, richer colouration, giving you added visual impact in your garden. Also known as Monterey cypress, it's such a great all-round garden plant it has been awarded the coveted RHS Award of Garden Merit so you can be sure that it has been trialled and tested and declared garden worthy! Growing to 3-5m tall in 10 years, Goldcrest is naturally upright and slightly 'teardrop' shaped but can be trimmed to suit your required height and makes perfect topiary. It is very easy to manage and can be kept in post on the patio for many years, where it will happily sit at centre stage of your displays. Golden Scented Cypress will grow in virtually any soil and in any location from full sun to partial shade (although for the brightest of golden-yellow colour it is best in full sun and protected from drying winds). It is completely winter hardy throughout the entire UK and is virtually pest and disease resistant too. Supplied as 6 x plants in 9cm pots, ready for planting out into the desired location.
