<p>Create a garden inside your house with the lush greenery and flowers of houseplants, and you&#39;ll not only&nbsp;make your house look beautiful, you&#39;ll improve your quality of life. Research has shown that in an average&nbsp;room, just two or three houseplants picked from the range in our %locations%&nbsp;garden centre improve air quality, pump&nbsp;feel-good oxygen back into the air and reduce stress.</p>

<div>In our garden centre you&#39;ll find handsome architectural palms and ferns for a modern, minimalist look; or&nbsp;pretty African violets, delicate paperwhite daffodils and fragrant stephanotis if shabby chic is more your&nbsp;style.</div>

<div>&nbsp;</div>

<div>Pick out a good-looking container for your houseplants from the range in our garden centre to really show&nbsp;off their beauty: in the right setting, the impossibly exotic flowers of orchids or the strange, waxy bloom of an&nbsp;anthurium can stop you in your tracks.</div>

<div>&nbsp;</div>

<div>Houseplants like a bright spot out of direct sunlight and away from radiators. Mist regularly with water to keep&nbsp;humidity high - you&#39;ll find hand misters in our garden centre, along with liquid feed to keep them at their best&nbsp;all season long.</div>

<div>&nbsp;</div>

<div>Please ask the staff in our %locations%&nbsp;garden centre for more information and advice about our range of houseplants.</div>

Houseplants

<p>Most plants will grow quite happily in containers and you can make just as fabulous a display using plants in&nbsp;containers as you can in the garden - great news if you&#39;re short on outdoor space. In our garden centre in %locations%&nbsp;you&#39;ll&nbsp;find a container for every plant: just match your plants to the pot that suits it best for instant success.</p>

<p><strong>Pots</strong> come in a huge range of styles and materials from ceramic to terracotta, stainless steel and stone. Let&nbsp;your imagination run riot creating mixed displays of perennials and shrubs in larger pots for instant impact.</p>

<p><strong>Troughs and grow spaces</strong> work brilliantly for growing vegetables on the patio. Place troughs against a wall&nbsp;to grow climbing beans, or divide a grow space as small as 1m x 1m into squares for planting a surprisingly&nbsp;wide variety of fruit and veg.</p>

<p><strong>Hanging baskets</strong> brighten up the dingiest of entrance ways with brilliant scarlet pelargoniums or, for&nbsp;something different, tumbling tomatoes or chillies. In our garden centre you&#39;ll find not only the baskets but&nbsp;also liners and water-retaining gel to mix into the compost to hold on to moisture for longer.</p>

<p>Please ask the staff in our %locations%&nbsp;garden centre for more information and advice about choosing containers.</p>

Containers

<p>Every garden should have a tree: they&#39;re not only beautiful plants in their own right, they also cast soothing&nbsp;shade, provide valuable privacy and often give you flowers, fruit and spectacular autumn leaf colour too.</p>

<p>Choose trees and shrubs from the range in our garden centre to build the architectural backbone of your&nbsp;garden. In summer when other plants are showing off, trees and shrubs melt into the background, but they&nbsp;all have a moment when it&#39;s their turn to shine &ndash; often in the depths of winter when there&#39;s little else around.</p>

<p>Start your garden&#39;s design off on the right foot with specimen trees from the range in our garden&nbsp;centre. In small gardens, trees with year-round interest like the autumn-flowering cherry (Prunus x&nbsp;subhirtella &#39;Autumnalis&#39;) really earn their keep, and evergreen conifers are a sturdy, reliable presence&nbsp;throughout the seasons.</p>

<p>Shrubs provide a framework for your garden: evergreen shrubs in particular are a constant backdrop to&nbsp;other plants, giving weight and depth to your design. Extend the season with winter-flowering witch hazels or&nbsp;Christmas box, and add explosions of summer flowers with roses, hydrangeas or flowering quince.</p>

<p>Please ask the staff in our garden centre in %locations% for more information and advice about choosing and growing trees&nbsp;and shrubs.</p>

Trees and shrubs

<p>When you&#39;ve crammed every inch of space on the ground with plants, the only way is up. Clothe your walls&nbsp;in greenery and smother your sheds in flowers to double your planting space and turn your garden into a&nbsp;green sanctuary from the outside world in sunny %locations%.</p>

<div>Climbers are one of the most versatile groups of plants in our garden centre and we&#39;ve got a great selection&nbsp;for you to choose from. Here are our favourites:</div>

<div>&nbsp;</div>

<div><strong>Clematis</strong> come in all shapes and sizes, from the tiny starry flowers of &#39;Pixie&#39; to big, blowsy &#39;Rouge Cardinal&#39;.&nbsp;Winter-flowering clematis have pretty seedheads while Clematis montana is a froth of flowers in April.</div>

<div>&nbsp;</div>

<div><strong>Wisteria</strong> is the ultimate in show-off climbers with its head-turning racemes of headily scented flowers in early&nbsp;summer.</div>

<div>&nbsp;</div>

<div><strong>Star jasmine (Trachelospermum jasminoides)</strong> covers the uprights of pergolas and arches with glossy&nbsp;evergreen leaves and scented white flowers and never outstays its welcome.</div>

<div>&nbsp;</div>

<div><strong>Honeysuckles</strong> are the perfect backdrop to a cottage garden, smothered in tubular flowers all summer and&nbsp;filling the garden with scent and punch-drunk bumblebees.</div>

<div>&nbsp;</div>

<div><strong>Passionflowers</strong> are far hardier than they look, especially the stop-you-in-your-tracks purple fringed&nbsp;whirligigs of Passiflora caerulea.</div>

<div>&nbsp;</div>

<div>Please ask the staff in our %locations%&nbsp;garden centre for more information and advice about growing climbers.</div>

Climbers

<p>A froth of roses scrambling over an arbour or smothering a wall, filling the air with a heavenly rich scent, turn&nbsp;a garden into a romantic paradise. Among the many climbing rose varieties in our garden centre, though,&nbsp;you'll find both climbers and ramblers – so what's the difference?</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>rambling roses</strong> usually flower just the once, in a huge and spectacular display, with clusters of&nbsp;smaller flowers</li>
<li><strong>climbers</strong> are a little more restrained, but they'll flower throughout summer producing larger individual&nbsp;flowers</li>
<li><strong>ramblers</strong> tend to produce lots of whippy young growth from the base: they're generally&nbsp;more 'tangled' looking.</li>
<li><strong>climbers</strong> are more sculptural, with stiff main branches&nbsp;often forming brown bark, like trunks - and&nbsp;secondary younger green branches</li>
<li><strong>ramblers</strong> are pruned by cutting out around a third of the oldest stems each year after flowering right&nbsp;to the base, to encourage plenty of healthy young growth: train horizontally for more flowers</li>
<li><strong>climbers</strong> are pruned into an arching horizontal framework of permanent mature branches in winter,cutting back sideshoots to two or three buds to encourage plenty of blossoms next year.</li>
</ul>
<p>Please ask the staff in our garden centre in %locations%&nbsp;for more information and advice about climbing and rambling roses.</p>

Climber or rambler?

<p>Imagine filling every vase in the house to overflowing with blowsy roses dripping with colour and scent. Well,&nbsp;if you grow your own roses for cutting, you can have that luxury every day.</p>
<p>Almost any roses look lovely in a vase, but for truly show-stopping displays look for varieties with long, sturdy&nbsp;stems, scent and long-lasting flowers. Here are five of our favourites from the range in our garden centre.</p>
<p><strong>'William Shakespeare 2000':</strong> such a dark crimson it looks almost black, and strongly scented, this modern&nbsp;rose is disease resistant and long lasting in the vase.</p>
<p><strong>'Princess Alexandra':</strong> one of the best cutting roses, with single headed magenta flowers on very long&nbsp;stems. It lasts over a week indoors.</p>
<p><strong>'Charles de Mills':</strong> vibrant and intensely-coloured in rich purple, this old-fashioned rose lasts ages once cut&nbsp;and has a rich perfume.</p>
<p><strong>'Souvenir du Docteur Jamain':</strong> this sumptuous old-fashioned rose is still a favourite today for its crumpled&nbsp;double blooms in rich velvety claret and exquisite scent.</p>
<p><strong>'Iceberg':</strong> among the most reliable roses you can grow, with pure white flowers that just keep coming: the&nbsp;more you pick, the more it produces.</p>
<p>Please ask the staff in our garden centre in %locations%&nbsp;for more information and advice about growing roses as cut&nbsp;flowers.</p>


Roses for cutting

<p>The irresistibly sweet, sultry scent of the rose has inspired Shakespearean sonnets, films, songs and stories&nbsp;like no other. Growing roses goes hand in hand with filling your garden with perfume, and there are dozens&nbsp;of richly fragrant roses to choose from in our garden centre. We've picked five of our favourites:</p>
<p><strong>'Zéphyrine Drouhin'</strong> is a wonderful deep pink climbing rose, smothering walls and fences in a waterfall of&nbsp;sumptuous double flowers with a lovely, heady scent.</p>
<p><strong>'Graham Thomas'</strong> is a striking butterscotch-yellow rose with generous flowers and a deliciously fresh&nbsp;perfume. It was voted the world's most popular rose in 2003.</p>
<p><strong>'Mme Isaac Perreire'</strong> is one of the most romantic of old-fashioned cottage garden roses, with big, blowsy&nbsp;double pink flowers and a superbly sweet, rich fragrance.</p>
<p><strong>'Roseraie de l'Hay'</strong> is nothing if not dramatic: deep wine-red, with masses of flowers with a spicy, clove-like&nbsp;scent followed by big red hips in autumn.</p>
<p><strong>'Gertrude Jekyll'</strong> has an intoxicating old-rose perfume but it's a modern rose, bred to combine the old-&nbsp;fashioned scent of traditional roses with the strong, disease-free growth of today's plants.</p>
<p>Please ask the staff in our garden centre in %locations% for more information and advice about scented roses for your&nbsp;garden.</p>


Roses for scent

<p>A rose in full bloom stops you in your tracks. It steals your heart with its paper-delicate petals and lures you&nbsp;in with its heady, romantic scent. Once you&#39;re truly captivated it&#39;s hard to resist filling your garden with the&nbsp;sumptuous butter yellows, sugar-spun pink, graceful white and blood red petals of this queen of flowers.</p>

<p>We&#39;re in love with roses too, so we&#39;ve got a variety in our garden centre to grace every spot in your garden.</p>

<p><strong>Climbers and ramblers</strong> like &#39;New Dawn&#39; and cream &#39;Alberic Barbier&#39; scramble boisterously up trellises and&nbsp;wire supports to clothe walls in swathes of colour.</p>

<p><strong>Shrub roses</strong> make striking centrepieces to a border: free-flowering and highly perfumed, they&#39;ll bloom from&nbsp;June till September. Apricot &#39;Buff Beauty&#39; or deep pink &#39;Comte de Chambord&#39; are good choices.</p>

<p><strong>Patio roses</strong> like pale pink &#39;Gentle Touch&#39; or pure white &#39;Diamond&#39; are dainty, smaller shrubs bred for their&nbsp;ability to thrive in containers. Smothered in blooms, they&#39;re long-flowering and brilliantly colourful.</p>

<p><strong>Ground cover roses</strong> spread out in low, graceful arches to cover the ground in dense foliage and flowers.&nbsp;The &#39;Flower Carpet&#39; series come in gold, pink, white and scarlet.</p>
