    Cyclamen

    3.99
    The life cycle of hardy cyclamen is unusual. It begins in September when dozens of small pink flowers begin to bloom before the leaves emerge.  Each flower is on a separate 4 ” stem and looks just like a miniature florist cyclamen flower with gorgeous reflexed petals.  The flowers continue to be produced abundantly in succession through out the months of September and October and sometimes for parts of August and November too. They emerge slowly as the flowers are blooming in late September and take several weeks to reach their full size.  “Variable” is an understatement to describe their wonderful shapes, patterns, and colors.  They can be round to lance-shaped, lobed or entire, serrated or smooth edged, dark green to silver.  And the patterns on the leaves are indescribable. They stay green and fresh all winter! Instead of going dormant in the winter like most of our plants, hardy cyclamen goes dormant for a few months during the summer.

    Cacti are now a very common houseplant. They come in a vast range of shapes and sizes from the petite to the grand.To care for a cactus plant, it is best to try to recreate their natural habitat. How to Care • Light Cacti thrive with good light sources, and it is best to place them in a bright place. A south facing position will provide good sunlight. However, be careful to not put them in direct sunlight because the intense light can make the plants turn a yellow colour. • Watering If your container has drainage holes, water thoroughly once a week during active growth period. If your container does not have drainage holes, water sparingly to moisten soil but be sure water does not pool up at the bottom of container which can cause rotting. Allow soil to dry between waterings. • Soil Cacti ike soil that is well aerated and fast draining. Perlite or pumice mixed with soil work well for this, or you can pick up cactus/succulent mix. • Fertilizer Fertilize during growing season with a 10-10-10 fertilizer diluted to 1/4 strength each watering. • Re-Potting If your cacti is pot-bound, then the best time to re-pot is in the spring. • Propagation Cacti have many methods for reproduction and can propagate from cuttings, leaf cuttings and producing pups and seeds.

    Pansy

    The most popular and best loved. It will perform in your garden whether in a container or planted out into the borders etc. Totally Winter hardy. Flowers from end August - next August (if looked after!) Typically the pansies are termed as Winter pansies and will flower through the Winter providing there are plenty of sunny days. They require the sun to initiate flower bud and in the sometimes dreary, dull days that Winter offer they maybe shy to flower. The reward is usually around the end of February onwards the first Spring flush of vibrant colours lift the garden into joy. Unlike a lot of bedding plants, pansy & especially viola are easy to keep looking good providing a few basics are given. Watering is best done in morning, keep drier during the winter months - but at the same time don't let them dry out completely. Feed with a high potash feed such as vitax , once established. If you are time strapped we suggest adding slow release food in the compost at time of planting with Vitax Q4 or Gro-Sure. This should provide enough nutrient for 6 months, but frequency of watering may effect this. De-head regurlarly to keep the plant producing more flowers and for disease prevention. The smaller violas are self-cleaning, ie. de heading not neccessary. Pest & disease problems? If the plants are kept healthy with good watering and de heading & dead leaf removal the plants will be trouble free. Pests. Caterpillars are the main issue. If you are environmentally minded, pick off any you see. However, a spray with systemic insecticide will do the trick. Slugs can often eat the flower buds, leaves & stems so watch out for them. Disease. There can be leaf spot and downy mildew problems. This mainly happens if we get a dull wet Winter. Try to keep plants dry and remove any affected leaves straight away. Preventitive fungicides can work if applied correctly.

  • Gro-Sure Seed Start’s natual blend of mycorrhizal fungi and friendly bacteria improves germination and establishment of seeds and young plants.
    • 25% better establishment
    • Boosts root growth
    • Locks in nutrients
    • Controls moisture
    • Contains mycorrhizal fungi and friendly bacteria
    Why Use A plant treated with Seed Start can take up more water and nutrients quicker due to the larger root system. This allows the plant scope for extra growth which in turn improves root growth and benefits the whole plant. Due to the larger root section the plant can draw water from an larger area, this means in times of drought the plant will be more resilient. Bigger roots = healthier, bigger plants = higher yield and abundant blooms
    • Water is held around the seed to aid germination
    • Mycorrhizal fungi & friendly bacteria enhance root development
    • Nutrients are held in the soil and feed the plant during the establishment
    Added Wetting Agent
    • Seeds must be kept constantly moist to soften the seed shell in order for germination to take place
    • Seeds must be moist, NOT wet. Insufficient moisture or erratic watering slows down or stops the germination process. Our added wetting agent locks in moisture around the seed and therefore germination is improved
    Clinoptiloite
    • Added clinoptiloite, a natural zeolite or volcanic rock dust, contains an array of basic nutrients and its crystalline structure grabs hold of other available nutrients in the soil stopping them being leached away
    • These nutrients are available to the root system of the plant while its structure also aerates the soil. Roots need to breathe
    Vermiculite 
    • Vermiculite opens up the growing medium so young roots can permeate more easily. Holding a considerable amount of moisture like a sponge it can also act as blanket to help keep seedlings warm and is particularly good for lightly covering sown seedlings
    Mycorrhizal Fungi
    • Fortified with beneficial mycorrhizal fungi which attach to the developing plants’ roots in exchange for some plant sugars. They quickly multiply forming their own extensive root supply, which absorbs nutrients and water to feed back to their host plant.
    • The plant’s absorptive root system is increased greatly and the plant is able to grow faster and stronger
    Trichoderma and Bacillus
    • Our blend of naturally occurring ‘friendly’ soil bacteria’s including trichoderma and bacillus colonise the root system. Because each pack of Seed Start contains millions of friendly bacteria they out-compete harmful soil pathogens within the soil, which cause plant diseases. It does all of this while also releasing locked up nutrients within the soil for the plants roots to uptake
    A healthy, strong plant is more resistant to attack by pest, and stresses caused by heat or drought giving your plant a bigger harvest or flowering period.

    Cupressus macrocarpa 'Goldrest Wilma' is one of the most attractive golden-foliage columnar conifers. Bright golden-yellow foliage. Any free-draining soil in sun or partial shade. Rate of growth up to 60cm per year. Can be used for hedging but doesn't trim quite as well as leylandii. If used for hedging, plant 60-90cm apart. Can be trimmed to keep at the required height Plant Size • Mature Height: 10m • Mature Spread: 2-3m Why We Love It • These trees work wonderfully as topiaries • Fresh lemony scent • Easy to maintain What To Know • Fruit Season: Fall • Position: Full sun • Soil: Well drained • Rate of Growth: Moderate to fast How to Care • In general, growing lemon cypress is not difficult. The trees require well-draining soil, but are not picky about whether it is loamy, sandy or chalky. They also accept acidic, neutral or alkaline soil. • Water regularly - weekly, or more often in extreme heat or containers. • Trimming/Pruning If this plant is used for hedging, it will need to be pruned regularly. It will have to be trimmed to maintain the required height. Use sharp pruning shears to remove the sucker branches and the errant branches that are growing in the wrong direction or making it difficult to fertilize the tree. Since lemon cypress has a conical habit, trim the tree as per its natural shape. Trimming should be done every week during the summer. • Fertilizer Fertilize with the standard, slow-releasing fertilizer that has an equal amount of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium once a month. You can also supplement the soil annually with turf fertilizers that contain other nutrients such as magnesium, boron, copper, and zinc
