A really luscious oriental poppy with deep reddish-purple flowers in early summer and bristly, grey-green leaves. The silky, pleated petals of this popular variety have been compared to the faded silk of antique ball gowns. Although the flowers of all oriental poppies are ephemeral, they are easy to grow and each plant will produce several flowers. If cut back after flowering, they may even produce a second flush. Plant it in a sunny border, as part of a cottage-garden scheme, alongside grasses or late summer-flowering perennials, such as dahlias, which will provide interest when the plant has died back. 'Patty's Plum' contrasts particularly well with silver foliage plants. Position:full sunSoil:moist, well-drainedRate of growth: fast-growingSold in a 2 litre pot.

An alternative, pesticide-free method, of dealing with winter moths on fruit trees. Female winter moths are wingless and have to climb trees to await the arrival of the winged males before mating. Vitax Tree Bands are treated with a non-drying adhesive and fit around the trunk of the tree, forming an impenetrable barrier for the female moths and other climbing insects. The result is no mating, no larvae and no damage.
