Plant our TRIED-AND-TESTED Winter Border this Autumn

Even a small group of plants can bring a bit of welcome winter cheer and make a huge impact in your garden.  Arrange them together where you will be able to see them from the front path or the kitchen window.  Remember to add Bonemeal food and water. 

Get your free leaflet "Creating Better Borders" for more planting ideas next time you visit.

Saltire Pot 

By planting muti-layers of bulbs, you create a great display and can spread it over many weeks.

Tip: Even if you want just one sort of bulb in your pot, you can still plant a couple of layers to get a really full and generous display.

We recommend a FROSTPROOF pot such as a terracotta Yorkshire Pot, or a glazed Errington Reay pot.

Use Arthur Bowers Multipurpose with added John Innes compost. Place a wigwam of broken crocks over the drainage hole to keep it open but stop the compost falling through it.
