Garden Centres Around Britain - Squires, Stanmore, seeking vines and scented roses

Plants available now, colourfully displayed by colour.

VINES - ORNAMENTAL LEAVES, Edible grapes, or grapes for wine-making
You can buy ornamental vines with pretty leaves but the grapes are no good for eating or winemaking.We cleared an area of garden with a sunny patch for the vines which must be planted with space between them. But what we want is not yet in stock. So we are waiting for the deliveries later this month.

Here are the ornamental vines currently in stock so on sale. Must admit I only found out this year that sweeter eating grapes and grapes suitable for wines are different, and now I know that there's a third variety, ornamental vines. Always worthwhile calling their knowledgeable staff to find out what to buy for what purpose and when.

The same delay applies for roses - scented roses will be in stock later. They are grown in fields and after the rose season ends and the plant is dormant is when they are uprooted or cut for replanting.
