Re order earlier this year of 40 fuchsia plants. They have flowered well since planting on arrival.Out of the 40 received I have lost 1 due to a neighbours cat.Very pleased and would recommend Victoriana to friends and family.

In early 2006 we were contacted by Mr Ernie Brown of Beacon Hill Allotment & Leisure Gardeners - who hoped to create an allotment on Cleethorpes seafront. Being the mad people that we are we thought this was a great idea and so donated the seeds and plants necessary.
The project was such a success that it was repeated for several years running, always with our support. Amazingly (and thankfully) vandalism was never a major problem. Based on its location, we believe this to have been one of the most viewed allotments ever - and will always wonder just how many people this encouraged to take up the hobby of vegetable gardening.
Sadly, local politics eventually saw an end to it.
