There are so many NEW plants in this catalogue you won’t believe it!

We did a huge trial of different pot combinations in my garden last summer. Only the outstanding performers appear here. If you choose from this range you will have the best ever flowers all summer long and well into autumn.

I’m so excited about the RHS Chelsea Flower Show this year. I’m designing a 10m x 10m Cutting Garden for the RHS at Chelsea, plus we have our stand selling seeds and garden sundries. (Stand no. SW317) Please come and find us, we’re looking forward to seeing everybody again this year.

Scented Pelargonium CollectionI’m obsessed by these four scented-leaved pelargoniums. I pick the foliage for very long-lasting arrangements, use the edible flowers to decorate puddings, and harvest the leaves all the time to use as flavouring and delicious cordial (see our website for recipe). PLUS they look fantastic. H.45cm 190361 4 x 9cm plants (1 of each) £21.95

Pelargoniums are durable, beautiful and easy – they make some of the best ever summer pot and garden plants. I love them on window ledges in winter too.

Position: Full sun, sheltered spot. Soil: well-drained. Hardiness: Tender perennial. a June-November. S.45cm Despatched from mid May
