HAPPY GARDENING everyone, I hope that the week is been good to you and the flowers.

Indoor gardening is just as important to a lot of us. For me I have an Aloe vera plant and some spiderplants around my home. Indoor plants can be great purifiers; like the Sansevieria commonly known as the snake plant can help to keep the air clean as well as looking nice. The Aloe vera is great for skin and sun burn and has lots of other benefits too so a great houseplant to have.

For long lasting colour indoors the geraniums are a favourite they come in lots of colours and can keep flowering over the winter.

New Guinea bizzy Lizzy are another lovely flowering one and again can flower through winter. Its great to have herbs on the kitchen window sill for easy access and the scent is lovely. Whether its mint or thyme or a mix in a window box it can add a lovely aromatic look to the window sill.

Continue feeding pots and some perennials and with deadheading they will carry on longer into the up coming months are the following. Rudbeckia commonly known as black eye Susan yellow daisy black centre and looking lovely in the council beds around the town at the moment.

Echinacea or coneflowers are just gorgeous some in white pink and purple lovely pollinators for the garden. Shasta daisy or Leucanthemum is a classic white petal yellow centre similar looking to the wild daisy int the country side. Helenium are another type of daisy come in red yellow and an orange like flower, very attractive and long lasting.

Anemones are a late flowering perennial they have soft pink or white petal with a yellow centre. They are elegant flowers that look naturalistic, they are great pollinators like bees and butterflies. They can spread and do well in some shade they are great companion for Hosta and Ferns or Ornamental Grasses.

We have some lovely new stock with lots of colours so if its to top up pots or its to add colour to the garden we have a lovely range available.
