Spring has sprung

The sun is out, the sky is blue and the magnolia tree in the field next to my house is coming into flower.  This is my favourite time of the year with all the possibilities of a gorgeous summer ahead of us.


For ideas on how to bring some early spring sunshine into your garden, have a look at our Get the Look Yellow Fever feature

Mother's Day Garden Gift Ideas

Whilst I don't necessarily agree with the commercial concept of Mother's Day, I do agree that we  sometimes need a reminder to spoil our mothers and to let them know that we appreciate their love and support.  I, for one, could not manage without my mum's help especially in the dog-sitting dept although the rest of the family have pointed out that the 'hairy' grandchildren do tend get preferential treatment.

So, if you're looking for something for a garden-loving mum, we have put together some ideas for you

Wire Cake Stand

Triple Garden Wall Planter

Lacy Tealight Holders

If you order any of the items featured in our Mother's Day Garden Gift section before 4pm on Thursday 15th March, we will guarantee delivery by Saturday 17th March. 

Plus we will deliver for FREE to any UK mainland address

Illuminated Outdoor Cube

How cool is this ....


We just added this illuminated outdoor cube to our online shop and we think it's really amazing.  Versatile as well as funky, it's fully rechargeable, so there is are no wires to limit you and you can position it anywhere you like.   Plus its sturdy enough to use as a stool as well as a light source, and its waterproof so it can be left outside even in our unpredictable British weather.



The 4 different modes allow you to choose the effect you want from flickering candle through to multi-coloured light changing.  What more can you ask for ....
