The new Aerocart allows you to become a gardening superhero and is more than just a wheelbarrow. Its unique design allows you to move massive weights around the garden (up to 136kg) and you can buy attachments which turns it into a yard cart, bag holder, dolly, extended dolly, cylinder carrier, rock and plant mover and trailer tote. You can even use it to move a fridge! It does everything and more than you would expect. Visit www.vermontsales.co.za to find a local supplier.

Hellebore – shady ladies

Hellebores have it all. They are evergreen perennial plants that are easy-to-grow, and winter-flowering. The flowers come in variations including fancy frills, exotic speckles, stripes, spots, delicately veined petals and breathtaking colours. They come in a captivating range of single, double or anemone centred flowers and colours vary from the purest glistening whites to all shades and hues of pinks, primrose-yellows, claret-reds, exquisite plum-purples, silver-slate black, and even apple-greens! Hellebore plants have an incredible diversity of flowers and are known for their robustness. The hellebore hybrids (orientalis) flower abundantly for approximately 3 months from July to September in South Africa. These long-living plants, often described as the ‘queen of winter flowers’, will add great value to your garden.

For more info visit GROASIS House of Hellebores on Facebook or www.groasishouseofhellebores.com.
