Sandedge are offering a truly unique gardening prize in our latest competition. Bringing wheelbarrows well and truly into the 21st century, this marvellous invention is a folding wheelbarrow.
Not only does it fold up flat so it can be stored in even the smallest gardens, but it can also come with this unique carrot design unlike the boring green metal wheelbarrows of yesteryear.

I bought my own mum this Name A Rose gift set for her birthday last year and realised what a fabulous gift idea it was for Mother’s Day and too.
Rather than get a bunch of flowers that’ll last a few days, get her a rose that’ll last forever!
