If there is one houseplant that has inspired generation after generation of indoor gardeners, then it has to be the ever popular (and easy to grow) Swiss Cheese Plant, Monstera Deliciosa. With glossy, rich green leaves laves with irregular holes, plants will trail gently over their pot if left untrained or can be treated as a climber and tied to a support. The glossy, tropical leaves of the Monkey Leaf are what makes this plant a star, easily adding a lush, exotic feel to any room. It's fascinating to watch the young leaves as the emerge tightly furled, growing longer each day before opening fully. Young leaves are solid, but as the plant matures they begin to develop the characteristic holes. Naturally a lazy climber, your plant will enjoy the support of a moss pole (not supplied) where you can push its aerial roots into the moss as they develop, helping to support it as it grows. A native of tropical rainforests, Monstera is a houseplant that's easy to keep happy - we recommend that you place it in bright but not direct sunlight indoors and mist the leaves regularly to provide humidity - plus they love a bit of a leaf-wipe now and again to remove dust and restore that glossy sheen. Supplied as an established plant in a 14cm pot As with all houseplants, keep away from children and pets and take care when handling. Please note that the decorative pot is not included.

Sempervivums, the iconic houseleek, are once again working their magic and are making a welcome return to our gardens, as people realise that they are a real easy-to-grow and keep plant. They really are fascinating, low-maintenance perennials and come in range of colours. Also known as hen and chicks because the freely produced offsets gather around the mother plant in much the same way as chicks around a mother hen. Houseleeks form rosettes of colourful, fleshy leaves and are low growing, making them extremely popular as a living carpet of green and the perfect candidate for making into displays - hence why they were so popular in landscaping in the 70's. These succulent plants are winter-hardy, drought-tolerant and will take a roothold in the narrowest of cracks - hence their common name, as they were once used to plug gaps in leaking roofs. As a bonus during the summer, the mature rosettes throw out spikes topped with star shaped flowers which insects love, plus they produce offsets, or new plants, every season that are simple to separate and grow as new specimens. Really easy to grow and a favourite with kids, Sempervivums require a well-drained soil in full sun, tolerating drought when established. Here, we've preplanted a concrete 'log' with a selection of types to give you an instant display. Supplied as a collection of 4 plants in a 36cm concrete log. Please note that varieties may change throughout the year, depending on availability.
