Getting out in the garden this Easter? It is cold, too cold for tender bedding plants but there are plants that will stand the chill and keep on smiling. Violas love this weather and there are many varieties and colours to chose from. Pansies of course are equally cold resistant. Double daisies, Forget-me-nots, Wallflowers and the New Senetti are also ideal to keep the colour coming until it's

A UK made product that will stand whatever the weather sends. Some imported pots just don't seem to take our varied weather - Yorkshire flower pots do stand the test - they are fired long and hot to make sure they are tough as can be - the inside of the terracotta turns a bluish colour showing that maximum strength has been reached. What's more the designs are both attractive and practical. Come

Now these are not the most inspiring bulbs around but they do turn into the most lovely plants. Sometimes called the outdoor Amaryllis they are easy to grow and give some welcome colour in the late summer and autumn - there are pink and white forms.

This is the latest addition to the list of excellent new Primroses that have just come on the scene. 'Woodland Walk' is good and hardy with purplish bronze foliage. Just the thing for patio pots and then planting out for following years. Flowers are variations on the theme of pink-purple.

Daisy type flowers have a way of making you happy - just think about Sunflowers. Gerberas have the same effect - they are just plain happy flowers - and new seasons Gerberas are in stock now.

It's Primrose time. The Heritage primroses are very like the wild ones, the hybrids have massive blooms in a whole range of colours and patterns. The frilled types have pretty rose like flowers in all kinds of vibrant colours. Great for cool window sills, patio pots and conservatories.

Christmas is all very well but there's gardening to be done and one of the first things is to get your seed potatoes organised. We have seed potatoes in stock now - a new supplier and they have come up trumps. All the best varieties of potato ready to be chitted for planting in March/April.

Putting together a gift for a keen gardener is easy at Stewarts. Simply pick up one of our natural wood seeds trays and add a selection of useful items with a few novelties for fun. We now sell Franchi seeds from Italy. These are all varieties that will do well in the UK and the amount of seed in the packs is very generous - just £1.59 each. Every gardener needs strings and labels - we have

You can enjoy a turkey lunch with all the trimmings for just £6.95 at both of our Garden Centres until Dec 21st. Serving from midday until 2.30pm. In the interest of checking the products we sell I have just munched my way through the plate-full in the pic. and I must send my compliments to the chef!

BBQs, Chimeneas, Cook-outs, all need lighting and that can be difficult when the humidity is high. These little kindling sticks are the answer. You might have seen Ray Mears using them. Each stick is about 80% inflammable resin - you can light them easily with a match and they burn hot. Even when wet they'll light and burn easily. Sourced from renewable forests in Guatemala, Ocote are a green

Fresh flowers are the best but they aren't always practical. Quality 'silks' look almost as good and need much less attention. The colours and varieties of our silk flowers are amazingly close to nature. You can mix and match colours just like you would with fresh ones.
