Making an Entrance

Why not bring a warm welcoming glow to a friend’s door this Christmas with a planted pot, brimming over with seasonal colour. Planted containers are available ready-to-go or can be made to order, to suit any budget, choosing from the many styles of pots and fabulous plants. This way you can create your own perfect winter container.

Winter is a time of year for remembering our feathered friends and you’ll find plenty of different bird feeders, bird tables, foods and accessories at Ardcarne Garden Centre. Feeding the birds is also a great way to get children interested in nature and can nurture a life-long love of gardening and wildlife. 

All Wrapped Up
