Ordered 60 Pearlwort plugs in mid-July as a low maintenance alternative to grass. Packaging and protection was excellent and plugs were in superb condition. I split each plug into 4 and planted directly into the soil which had been well prepared beforehand. The somewhat warmer summer meant more frequent watering to ensure the plugs settled into place. By next summer I anticipate the soil between the stepping stones in the garden to be completely filled with pearlwort. It is planted in direct sun and deeply shaded areas but all are growing and spreading well. Most of the plugs flowered and the spread has been quite amazing. Because of the layout, a lawnmower or strimmer would not fit so an alternative had to be found. Victoriana Nursery provided the perfect solution - a low maintenance grass alternative which also produces small white flowers. Everyone who sees it loves the look and the idea of no real maintenance. Victoriana Nursery has a range of unusual plants so I will definitely be after future purchases and spreading the word to those who are curious or are 'green fingered'. Great value for money. Keep the area weed free as the plants spread and weeds will be a thing of the past.

Quince Trees
The aromatic, high-pectin, pear-like fruits of the quince tree are perhaps better known for their use in fantastic jellies, jams and even wines - but they can also be steamed, stewed, roasted and cooked in the same fashion as their pear relatives, making the quince a versatile and attractive addition to any kitchen garden.
Our quince trees can be grown as trees or pruned as quince bushes, and are supplied as bare root trees in the dormant season. In summer we are usually able to provide our quince trees for sale in pots.
