Placed my first order with you last week and must say I could not be more pleased with your service. I received an e-mail confirming my order and a further e-mail to let me know when my order had been dispatched, I was amazed when my order arrived the day after when I was expecting 3 to 5 days. The plants arrived very well packed and protected and were in excellent condition and a good size that did not need growing on. The plants have been in the ground for nearly a week and are looking strong and healthy. I will certainly be using you again. Well done on an excellent service. Best Wishes

A Welcome Cold Snap - Or Not?
Despite the early promises, November didn't turn out quite the month we expected - with heavy rains and winds across the country beating everyone, including us gardeners, into submission. And then the weather dried and cooled - a welcome cold snap!
Whilst we managed the monthly video over the weekend, its taken a few days to get the words done - and now we have an inch or so of snow on the ground (but we hope it wont last) - a not so welcome cold snap!
And so with Christmas around the corner we're nearly at the end of another year. But there is still much to do in the garden both before, during and after Christmas...
- Now is the perfect time for planting bare root tree and soft fruits - and hedging. Plantings undertaken now will settle in faster than plantings later in the Spring and so will save effort in the long run.
- Then on Christmas Day afternoon its time to sow the onions!
- And then after Christmas its time to plan ahead for the Spring.
And that brings us nicely round to pointing out what a fabulous gift seeds and plants make. Have a look in our Christmas Gifts section for some great ideas for both the complete novice and more experienced gardener alike. And for those shopping on a budget we've introduced some Credit Crunch Gift Ideas as well.
We'll leave it there for now - and catch up before Christmas!
