A beautiful, compact rose that will look magnificent displayed on your patio or outside your front door, this half standard has a long, slender stem, topped with a ball of fragrant flowers.

Such a wonderfully decorative ornamental Christmas tree, you'll be captivated by its spinning, sparkling light show. The tree is filled with water that contains glitter. When switched on, the water begins to swirl as colour changing LEDs shine up from the base creating a spectacular effect. Light beams out in all directions making the tree look stunning and sending reflections dancing around the room. The lights slowly fade from colour to colour giving a magical effect. The tree requires 3 x AAA batteries (not included). The tree features a timer function that will switch it on for 6 hours, then off for 18 hours, repeating the cycle so you don't have to do it yourself. So simple to use, just switch on the timer and that's it - the lights and swirl effect will stay on for 6 hours before switching off, coming back on again at the same time the next day. Supplied as an ornamental tree, 10 cm (4 in) in diameter and 30 cm (1 ft) tall.
Beautifully unique, Loropetalum 'Ruby Snow' has a wonderful contrast of foliage and flower and makes a striking talking point in any design. The white, tassel-like flowers stand out magnificently against the dark purple leaves to bring a touch of early spring magic to your garden. Perfect in pots, bold in borders and superb as a specimen plant, in summer you may also get a second flush of blooms - so you can enjoy this colour combination once again. The gorgeous foliage is semi evergreen too, so the leaves are only lost for a short period, so you have even more time to appreciate its lovely colour combination. Ruby Snow has a creeping growth habit and will get to around 70cm tall and 40cm wide making it a great candidate for growing in a pot and it's easy to grow too - a low maintenance shrub which tolerates both heat and drought well and is hardy to -10 °C. Supplied as an established plant in a 15cm pot, ready to plant out.
Probably one of the most scented of garden plants, this is one where everyone notices its beautiful, citrus fragrance as they walk past - well deserving its common name of 'mock orange'. From spring to early summer, large, soft-green leaves cover the upright stems, making the perfect foil for other, more colourful flowers. Then, from June, the main event happens...buds burst into huge clusters of creamy-white, fragrant blooms, smothering the tree from top to toe. The spectacle doesn't end there either, as the blooms finish, they shed their petals like a snowstorm, looking for all the world like white cherry-blossom carpeting the ground. An ideal specimen plant for a large container on your patio, you can position it near your house so that the gorgeous scent can drift into your home. Supplied as 3 established plants in 9cm pots.
Just imagine, glistening, snow-white berries in your garden at Christmas - looking like tiny, sparkling decorations. Callicarpa, also known as the Beauty Berry, is a fabulously decorative shrub, characterized by bunches of berries which brighten the autumn garden with a sparkling hue. Something a little different to the usually seen purple plant - 'Magical Snowstar' is covered in snow-white berries from October to November which contrast beautifully with the autumn colour changes of its leaves. Callicarpa also works well as a decorative addition to Christmas displays, and adds a touch of winter magic to flower arrangements in your home. Growing to around 2.5m (8ft) Callicarpa bodinieri 'Magical Snowstar' is a tightly branching shrub which colours up in the autumn, when the leaves turn yellow before they fall, revealing the perfect snowball berries. If you're keen to cut the stems for indoor displays, then it's best to wait until December for the best colour. If you're keen to incorporate white accents into your garden, then callicarpa is an ideal choice. With a high tolerance for most soil types, it's very easy to grow - Magical Snowstar needs very little in the way of maintenance, just plant it in partial shade and prune out any dead or damaged branches in the spring. The bright berries provide your home with a colourful accent - although wait until the berries are fully grown and have their full colour. Once in a vase, it is important that they are in a cool and not too sunny place to retain the best colour. They're long lasting too, keeping for more than a month once cut as long as you don't drown the stems - they're fine in just 4in of water with a drop of bleach in the vase. You will receive an established plant in a 3L pot, ready for planting out.
