Arriving week of Dec 2-8


Let's face it a trip it's a long way to Kew Gardens or the Chelsea Garden Show.  Happily, this brand new watering can design from the Royal Horticultural Society's RHS Gifts for Gardeners range helps fill the void for lovers of a traditional English aesthetic.

The new ‘Asteraceae’ design showcases blooms from the daisy family. These resilient flowers have a starring role to play in our gardens as summers last longer and autumns become warmer. They keep the colour going in a longer season, and also offer an important source of forage for pollinators when other flowers fade.

The elegant new design has been created by Burgon & Ball featuring illustrations dating illustrations dating from circa 1810, specially selected from the RHS Lindley Collections of historic botanical art. A soft sage green background is the perfect foil for the jewel-bright colours of the China aster and coreopsis.

It’s so gorgeous it could easily double as a statement vase for a small flower arrangement, but this piece has practical credentials, too. All-steel construction makes it durable but lightweight, while the elegant spout facilitates on-target watering — less spillage, less water waste. 

Even if your plot, balcony or window box will never rival Sissinghurst Castle Garden, don’t fret. There's plenty of inspiration this spring with Open Gardens Australia's season calendar. If you're not planning to stick to your home garden, escape to the Kew Gardens site and explore the world of plants and fungi from your sofa. (Gin and tonic optional.)

And if handling this watering can fosters a love of botanical illustration, why not give it a try? There's inspiration everywhere. You can find more about the history and process of this gentle artform here. The Australian National Botanic Garden maintains an amazing online library of our own native plants rendered in art.

Heart's Desire

The versatile heart-shaped trowel has been created to be ideal for planting. It’s extremely useful for shallower digging and scooping when planting bulbs, bedding, or plug plants. The wide head moves soil quickly and easily, and the pointed sharpened tip slices smoothly through ground. The ergonomic design gives the gardener more digging power, since the head is in line with handle, rather than angled. This trowel’s small size makes it especially ideal for container gardening.

The mirror-polished stainless steel of the tool head glides with minimal resistance through the soil. The stainless steel is rust-resistant and will keep rust at bay to stay looking bright and beautiful for years to come. The FSC® beech wooden handle is carefully shaped to fit satisfyingly into the gripped hand, and the turned ferrule in solid brass provides a secure and lasting connection between handle and body.

Presented in a stylish gift box, this unusual garden tool makes a lovely gift for any gardener – or, of course, a very practical treat for yourself!

The waxed Forest Security Council (FSC) beechwood handle is smooth and fits snugly into the hand, while the brass ferrule ensures a secure connection between the tool head and handle. The etched Sophie Conran for Burgon & Ball maker’s mark adds a distinctive finishing touch.

Presented in a beautiful box, this heart-shaped trowel makes a beautiful and thoughtful gift for any gardener.
