Wishing you all a very Happy New Year!
The festive season is over, but the season of planting is here!
The answer to questions often posed at this time of year is YES, you can plant trees and shrubs now, but please wait until the ground is frost-free. Bareroot and rootballed plants can be stored until the soil conditions are just right. Store your plants in a frost-free, sheltered environment, with damp roots but not submerged in water. Remember to use Rootgrow mycorrhizal fungi at the planting stage. This organic fungi helps establish healthy root growth. Remember, also, to protect your plants against rabbits and wind, using tree shelters, stakes and ties, where necessary.

Many plants are at their best during autumn and winter, including charming Skimmia japonica 'Rubella'.
Others have the most amazing winter scent, and the prize for this goes to Sarcococca confusa, the sweet box. It hides its secret amongst evergreen leaves, but the perfume reaches forth through the winter chill.
For the most unusual flowers, with winter scent too, we have to nominate Hamamelis, the beautiful witch hazel!
