New Planting Advice Articles

This news article is from our news archive, details may be out of date - thank you.
We are pleased to announce we have finally started to put some of our planting advice and care information online for you.  We have started with How to care for Camellias, and Our Guide to Planting in Coastal and Windswept locations.  We hope that you enjoy them.  Over the next couple of weeks we will be adding articles on Rhododendrons, Magnolias and other plants.

Charles has also been verbose elsewhere on the internet and has recently published an article on the history of the x williamsii camellia and also some background on the history of yellow magnolias which you might like to read. We are also putting together more plant history articles and origins for those of you who like to know a bit more about the plants in your garden.  These will be added during 2009 to the plant history section.

We are also in the process of getting together all of our pot sizes so that you will be able to see the pot sizes of the plants you are buying easily.  This should be ready for the new catalogue at the beginning of 2009.  As a result of our customer surveys, you have requested individual plant information about growing conditions, plant overall size and exposition all of which will be added throughout the Spring.  It is no small task with over 4000 plants to update.
