April brings sunshine and as gardeners we welcome the new month with a smile.

Lots going on in the gardens with the bedding range now expanded into the summer range, we have a lovely selection to choose from.

The petunias are out, and we have a full range of colour available now so if you were thinking of starting your summer baskets or pots, we have a great selection.

Tomato plants are now available from Moneymaker to cherry tomatoes which can be growing in pots, we have cucumber plants in 10.5cm pots.

With a large range of vegetable plant to choose from you will have the garden full quickly and for those who do container plant lettuce is an easy one to start with.

With lots of colours in perennials arriving daily the range expanding each week and some of my favourites are the perennial Geum and Scabiosa they are both long flowering with lots of colour.

Roses are now available with a wide range from Hybrid to patio roses and the colour selection is vast not to mention the sweet, scented flowers they will produce.

Shrubs variety have also expanded one that stand out is Little Red Robin the way the tips change colour and it’s a dwarf variety so will do in a pot too. Lovely selection of Hebe available especially if you want shrubs that won’t get too wide or tall.

Lavender now available another great shrub for the garden or in a container its scent is just beautiful and refreshing.

If like me you are starting to put together some summer pots we have a lovely range of geraniums and Bidens. Just add some bedding plant and by easter you will have a full pot of colour.

This time of year we have so much coming in to the shop its hard to pick and choose what to add to the garden I always find by asking some key questions it helps to narrow down the choose for people so, if you have an area and you are puzzled with what can be done come in and we can help you.

I hope everyone is enjoying the time in the garden this April.
