Late autumn and early spring are traditionally the best times of year for planting roses, to help get them off to the best possible start. Thorough ground preparation and careful planting are a must to help feed your hungry roses.

We’ve have on the nursery a great selection of hybrid tea, patio, standard, climbing, rambling, carpet and floribunda roses to chose from. There is a rose for every situation in your garden.

Luckily their planting requirements are broadly similar. Roses like a sunny slightly protected location, a deep hole or large pot for their roots to grow deep down into and lots of organic matter and high potash feed during their flowering period. Its best to also mulch with manure, soil conditioner or bark mulch to retain soil moisture levels and keep weeds away.

There’s a hellebore variety that’ll be in flower through December to March, and they really do perform to their best through the colder weather and loom stunning popping up through the snow.

Plant hellebores in moist but well drained soil, in full or partial shade especially under big under shrubs or trees.

Once established, they will need very little water, or even much fertiliser. An annual mulch of soil conditioner or similar is all they’ll need. Chop the old leaves off down to the ground just before the flower buds appear in late winter, this will help to reveal the flowers that can be hidden by the large leathery leaves.

November through till March is once again the best time to be planting all your trees (but also shrubs, lifting and dividing established perennials and bulbs).

Planting when dormant allows the roots to begin to establish themselves without any other seasonal stresses on the trees (such as flowering, fruiting or dealing with drought in dry summers)

Depending on the planting site and size of the tree you may need to provide your tree with support to avoid it rocking in highwinds which will damage the new roots.

We have a fantastic selelction or Ornamental trees such as: Acer, birch, amelanchier, cercis, catalpa, eucalyptus, hawthorn, gleditsia, gingko, crab apples, magnolias, nyssa, parotia, flowering cherries, photinia, rowan, sorbaria, lilacs, acacia, robinias and so many others!

Our fruit tree selection contains: Apples, apricots, plums, pears, peaches, figs, filberts, miracots, quinces, gages, mulberries and cherries carefully grafted on many sizes of rootstocks (to suit all growing requirements) or trained on fans ready for a sunny wall.

November through to march is the best time to get your dormant fruit established.

We have a fantastic selection of raspberries, redcurrants, blackcurrants, whitecurrants, pinkcurrants, gooseberries, blackberries, rhubarb, blueberries, tayberries, loganberries, Japanese wineberries, gojiberries, honeyberries amongst many many more.

To plant, add well-rotted manure and general fertiliser or fish blood and bone to the site. Plant in a hole twice the size of the pot or root system of the plant adding a thick mulch of organic matter, such as manure or soil conditioner.

Once planted, keep the compost moist and during growing season feed with a liquid general-purpose fertiliser monthly, and a high potash feed once fruits start to form.
