The soft flesh is literally packed with juice and glistens tantalisingly when you bite into it. If you can resist eating your whole crop, they make truly incredible juice!

This new garden peach tree really has it all - giving interest from early spring through to autumn and the promise of a crop of juicy peaches! In early spring, the blossom appears, and the bright-pink, saucer-shaped blooms are produced in abundance. Their display is every bit as good as the best ornamental cherries and are a magnet for bees and other friendly insects. Then, as the blossom fades, the foliage appears - each elongated, slender leaf taking on a bronzy hue as it unfolds, offering a lovely contrast to the more familiar greens in the garden. Over the summer, the fruits enlarge and ripen until they're ready to pick in late August. Peaches are deep red when ripe, with sweet yellow flesh. For best results grow in a large pot in a sunny spot in the garden - an ideal spot perhaps being against a south-facing wall. While 'Rubira' is fully hardy in the UK climate, it is best protected from rain during the winter months as this helps avoid leaf diseases. If possible, move under cover, such as to a porch or greenhouse. Alternatively, cover with a tent fashioned from garden polythene. This spectacular tree with delicious fruit is worth the effort!

One of the nation's favourite early spring plants, Camellias are, when given the right conditions, very straightforward and problem free. Camellia Japonica 'Nuccio's Cameo' will provide your garden with the most fabulous displays of flowers when almost every other plant is still asleep for winter. Each bloom on this variety has a beautifully soft-pink tone to them and are made up of delicately layered petals. Perfect for growing in pots, they have a dense and upright growing habit with glossy green leaves. The key to success with Camellias is they need acidic soils - like Rhododendrons. This means they can easily be grown in pots in ericaceous composts, and provided they are fed with specialist ericaceous feed, will provide many years of colour and interest. They are evergreen, and their neat, shiny, tough leaves will provide a backdrop to other plants all year. Flower buds start swelling late the previous summer, and keep getting bigger all autumn and winter, until they burst open in early spring. The flowers can be caught by frosts when they are opening, but the buds are generally fine, and the plant is totally hardy and tough. 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 it will return year after year getting bigger and better for many years to come.

We've unearthed a little gem here for you - the perfect patio fruit tree for smaller gardens. In fact, its breeder, renowned British fruit grower Will Sibley, thinks it's the best patio fruit tree you can grow. Quinces have fallen out of favour - and perhaps out of flavour, too.

The Kitchen Bay, Laurus nobilis, is thought to have been first cultivated in the 17th century, and has been a herb garden essential ever since. These evergreen shrubs have aromatic leaves that are a culinary staple, bringing mouthwatering depth and a rich aroma to everything from soups, stews and curries to Bolognese and roasted or barbecued meats. They're best when plucked fresh from the bush and simply added to the pot whole and left to infuse. Fresh leaves have a lighter, more floral flavour than dried leaves and can be kept in the fridge. If dried, they have a more intense flavour. They should be removed before serving unless they're ground or chopped. Bays are often grown in pots and respond well to training into topiary shapes. However, their lush, glossy and dense foliage makes them ideal for hedging and they make excellent structural features in formal gardens. They require little more than a light trim in early spring and summer to maintain the desired shape and will happily grow in sun or partial shade in well-drained soil. They're also well suited to coastal locations. 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, to be enjoyed for many years to come.

Supplied as an established plant, 80-100 cm tall in a 20cm pot, growing to a height and spread of 10 m (33 ft) if left unpruned.

The stems are incredibly strong to enable the support for this amazing flower, and they are tolerant of rain and wind hence the name, 'Incrediball'!!

Supplied as an established plant in a 3L pot, for real Summer impact in your garden, the Tree Hydrangea 'Incrediball' is a winner.
