Patio 'Summerred' has been specially grown to be the perfect size for growing in a pot on your patio or balcony, and although it's small in stature, it will still produce an impressive crop of tasty apples! Eaten fresh and raw, or used in cooking to make delicious desserts, this juicy apple has well balanced sweetness and acidity and lovely white flesh which has a hint of strawberry to its flavour. Producing large red dessert apples, 'Summerrd' is an early season apple, so you can begin to pick the fabulous fruit as early as mid-august!. By experty grafting to the M9 rootstock 20-30cm above soil level, we've been able to further restrict the already dwarfing habit to produce a wonderful yet productive patio tree. 'Summerred' is self-sterile, so it will need a pollination partner - another apple in a nearby garden, if not your own! Supplied as an established tree, 90-110cm (3ft) tall grown on an M9 dwarfing rootstock in a 18cm pot, growing to a height and spread of 1.5m (5ft).
Summertime is here with this scented bouquet of lilac stocks, seasonal summer sunflowers, lilac memory lane roses and white alstroemeria. Please note the bouquet pictured is the chic size and the vase is not included.
A beautiful lavender plant presented in a grey ribbed tin. With a beautiful aroma, these purple flowers will enhance your outdoor space in the Summer months. Perfect for displaying in your garden to add a splash of colour and fragrance.

A reliable old favourite, Cabbage Greyhound produces early maturing pointed hearts of excellent flavour. Compact plants with very few wasted outer leaves
Clubroot Resistant! The first cauliflower with Clubroot resistance. Cauliflower Clapton is a versatile late summer to late autumn maturing variety, depending on its sowing time. Produces excellent flavoured quality, uniform, large, solid and deep white heads. It has taken over 18 years of conventional breeding to develop a variety that can combat the devastating brassica disease Clubroot and this superb variety is the most resistant we have ever grown on our trials Andrew Tokely says: Both myself and many other allotment growers believe that Cauliflower Clapton has changed the way that we grow cauliflower. Its Clubroot Resistance is almost foolproof on all soils, even if this dreadful soil borne disease has been present before. Also good sized curds are produced and melt in the mouth.
(Summer) Cabbage Elisa is a deliciously sweet tasting summer ball-head Cabbage of exceptional quality, producing compact, round, shiny heads which have good standing and are not prone to splitting.

A very useful, very white, dwarf variety that can be sown and harvested at most of the cauliflower harvesting periods of the year.

Prefers a moist, rich well drained soil for optimum heads. Height: 60cm (24). Spread: 75cm (30).
Sweetheart cabbages are becoming increasingly popular in supermarkets during late summer through to winter. Now you can grow your own! Cabbage Caramba has tender, sweet pointed mid-green hearts, ideal shredded raw in salads and coleslaws or delicious as a steamed vegetable
Compact habit with few waste outer leaves. Firm, conical pale green, tender and flavoursome hearts which stand well through the summer. Can be planted closely so ideal for the smaller garden. Ideal for using raw in salads and coleslaw. Help to retain bio diversity by growing these traditional varieties with the taste and garden performance well regarded by previous generations
An outstanding variety. Ideal for small gardens. Cabbage Hispi can be grown at virtually any season of the year and comes to maturity faster than cabbages specially created for specific seasons. Even autumn sown it will beat the earliest of the spring cabbages. Hispi is a pointed type, strong and uniform and with a beautifully sweet flavour. A Jan/Feb sowing fills the late spring gap in cropping. Bolt resistant. Andrew Tokely says: I always sow this cabbage in early March, and I harvest the first sweet and tender hearts by mid June. This is far quicker than traditional spring cabbage sown in the autumn and the flavour is miles better too
A well known variety, Cabbage Primo produces solid 'ball head' cabbage from June to August. Easy and productive.
