FOR PLANT PARENTS

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.

Burgon and Ball's stainless-steel dandelion weeder is endorsed by the Royal Horticultural Society, perhaps the highest accolade in the gardening world.

Traditional and effective, this weeding tool offers an organic, chemical-free option for removing tap-rooted weeds such as dandelions. The sharp point penetrates ground easily, and the notched V-shaped tip allows roots to be cut off deep underground so the weeds won't come back. Simple, clever and safe. There's no need to worry about chemicals around children and pets and look forward to no regrowth.

The stainless steel of this weed remover tool is extremely resistant to rust, so will stay looking good for years. A strong leather cord allows the weeder to be hung up when you're not using it, keeping the shed or the garage tidy.

RHS-endorsed stainless steel tools come with a lifetime guarantee.

I'll be darned? Did you know?

Dandelions are edible weeds! That's right...celebrated in both eastern and western herbalism and loved by many cultures. Next time you run out of greens pop outside with your RHS Dandelion Weeder. Have you considered sauteeing your dandelion (after washing it thoroughly of course), with some olive oil and a clove of garlic. Once softened, remove the garlic, add salt and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. Enjoy on crusty bread with a sprinkle of chilli flakes for a kick.

Love Potion

 “The chic, minimal packaging hints at its chemistry-set roots while the scent is clean, natural and highly addictive. Move over Love Potion No. 9...”
– House and Garden

The fragrances Laboratory Perfumes create at Laboratory Perfumes often start with a single aroma. In Samphire’s case, it was a young leaf of verbena plucked from a friend’s garden on a spring afternoon. The scent was so arrestingly fresh, Laboratory Perfumes decided to find a way to capture its zesty rush for this, their third fragrance.

A sprig of that verbena was crushed with a pinch of juniper berries from the spice rack – and Samphire began to take shape.

Moving from the kitchen to the lab, citrus oil, flourishes of lavender, basil and rosemary, as well as base notes of white amber and oak moss were blended in to create a bright, cool, aromatic scent with a lightness of touch that belies its complexity and longevity on the skin.

The finished scent was so clearly evocative of the seashore they could only call it Samphire.

Moroccan Memoir

“After a family holiday in Morocco, I spent weeks rifling through tins of pipe tobacco in a specialist store in Mayfair to find the right base for a scent that evoked the rich, leathery smells we discovered in the mountains.”

Inspired by the scents and scenery of Morocco’s Atlas Mountains, this unisex fragrance is built around the aroma of pipe tobacco. Layers of rum, vanilla and hay are topped with cinnamon, ginger and black pepper, wrapped in the woody warmth.

Nostalgia is a form of time travel for emotions, and scent can be the most powerful way to trigger it. For Laboratory Perfumes, a whiff of pipe tobacco can be enough to unleash a fond flood of childhood memories into the hippocampus. So, when it came to determining the base for their fifth fragrance, Laboratory Perfumes chose something very personal – that earthily aromatic tobacco note.

With the help of a knowledgeable but somewhat bemused tobacconist, they went through dozens of different blends and cures in search of the right scent to build upon. The one they settled on had a whisper of the exotic, reminiscent of Morocco, so back in the lab, they introduced supportive layers of rum, vanilla and hay that intensified its North African character. Spiced with cinnamon, ginger and black pepper, and complemented with the warming, woody aromas of fine Cognac, the result is a complex and confident fragrance that unveils intriguing new layers and facets as the day goes on.
