ICL Osmocote Pro 8–9 Months (25kg)

£175.99Inc. VAT

A high-performance, second-generation controlled-release fertiliser (18-9-10+2MgO+TE) with a long-term nutrient release profile, perfect for spring potting and supporting plants through an extended growing season.

  • Extended 8–9 Month Longevity: Engineered to provide a steady, continuous supply of nutrients for nearly three-quarters of a year, covering the entire lifecycle of most seasonal and nursery crops.

ICL Osmocote Topdress Pro with Fusion Technology (25kg)

£156.99Inc. VAT

A specialized, 4–5 month controlled-release fertiliser (22-5-6+2MgO+TE) specifically designed for topdressing container-grown plants, featuring advanced “sticky” technology to prevent granule loss.

  • System Compatible: Dust-free and safe for use with both overhead and drip irrigation systems (when placed directly under the dripper).

Application Guide:

  • Containers < 10L: Apply 2–4g per Litre.

  • Containers > 10L: Apply 3g/L for the first 10L + 1g for every additional Litre (e.g., 70g for a 50L pot).

Premium Garden Supplies and Expert Landscaping Advice

Chances are, without the right soil, tools, and planning, a garden won't thrive the way you imagined. There wasn't a schedule agreed upon for planting or a clear vision for the layout. It's a landscaping project gone awry right from the start. Buying the cheapest seeds wouldn't have helped, and it won't help now. It's like saying you have a bad lawn, so just add more water, or don't prune your roses every other season. True enough, but that's not all that it takes to get things back on track.

The neighbors are out there waiting to see that stunning transformation.

You made all the required measurements for your new patio, got the dimensions, built a solid plan or hired a landscaper, you decided on a colour scheme, bought the timber or adapted existing beds:

The cheap tools you might grab for a quick fix when you forgot to visit a proper center, the varnish you slap on a fence to impress the guests is your business. But what about the long term? Perennials, shrubs, heavy-duty equipment—will your garden accept that you go about things the easy way? Authorities in horticulture will tell you in no uncertain terms that poor soil preparation is that huge, huge no-no to forswear forever.

Not so fast, I'd say, there are some redeeming factors in favor of budget gardening, as its use is merely the symptom of a different problem to take into consideration.

Gardens in the UK require consistent seasonal attention.

Our extensive nursery collection and landscaping supplies ensure that you can grow different species and different styles using the same reliable materials.

When it's about controlling hundreds of varieties, flower beds for the front yard, or vegetable patches in the back, all of them potentially with different sun, water, and soil rules, things can wither, designs agreed upon can have unintended consequences and look much different than expected.

This is quite a challenge to solve, but just hoping for rain won't fix it. Using high-quality compost and sturdy tools will help, but there's no guarantee that every pest will be avoided. Do you want to be sure? Then sourcing your supplies from a dedicated specialist like Sunflower Garden is needed—but you’re not going that far until you start your initial digging cycle.
