Dianthus - Pink Kisses, beam with hundreds of clove-scented flowers that won't disappoint. They are easy-care options for summer colour and can tolerate full sun in well-drained soil.

Geraniums are stunning, sun worshipping plants that offer huge colour and scent from Spring and throughout the summer months.

We have huge offers on summer bedding packs, throughout the plant department. Some of which include trailing and bush bedding plants to brighten all corners of your garden.

Stay at home and grow your own...
There's nothing quite like the taste of freshly grown fruit and vegetables from your garden. That, coupled with the sense of achievement, makes growing your own a fulfilling and ultimately rewarding past time. The great news is you can start now. Get the family involved and explore the range of fruits, vegetables and herbs you can grow in pots, borders and even baskets. Here we have a selection of great tips to help get you started on your very own - 'grow your own' journey, from pot to plate!

Peppers
Peppers to suit everyone's tastes available in-store. Grow well, eat well.

Heritage Vegetables
Heritage vegetables that have stood the test of time, such as these Tomatoes - 'Black Russian' which are an old variety of beef tomatoes.

Strawberries
If you only grow one fruit this year, let it be Strawberries. Fantastic crop output using minimal space, so well worth a try this year!

Fruit
Wouldn't you love to grab a fresh, juicy apple or a handful of strawberries from your own garden? You can grow many different fruits in your garden at home, even if you have limited space. But before you start dreaming of the delicious gooseberry pie you'll make from your harvest, consider which fruits will grow best in your garden.

Vegetables
Now is the perfect time to start preparations for this year's vegetable crops. Our online store has a huge selection of vegetable seeds to choose from...there will even be something for the fussiest little eaters, we promise!

Herbs
As we are all staying at home, why not grow your own? Last year saw many of us turn to the garden whether that's growing plants in pots, planters or baskets or starting a herb garden. From tasty basil to fragrant mint, growing your own herbs can be very rewarding. Plus they are great to add to your recipes. Why not get the kids involved?
Seed Potatoes
Growing potatoes can be fun and rewarding. They are one of the easier vegetables to grow. You can grow potatoes in a small space in the garden or on your patio or balcony by growing them in bags or containers.
Buried Treasure
For great crops, now is the time to plant your seed potatoes. Read our blog on planting seed potatoes here. Full of useful advice and tips to get the best out of first early, second early and main crop potatoes.

House Plants
Houseplants look great and improve our lives by brightening up our homes and bringing the natural world indoors. In addition to this, NASA’s Clean Air Study found that plants remove harmful toxins found in household materials and products. One of the best at this is the Marble Queen Pothos (Epipremnum aureum).

Aloe Plant
Not only do they look striking but they also have many medicinal uses. The plant is stemless or very short-stemmed with thick, green, fleshy leaves. With its many medicinal uses, it is usually safe to use the aloe vera straight from the plant.
