Garden Deptartment's blog

It's that magical time of the year again, where every family is preparing their home for the festive celebrations ahead.

As your local independent Birmingham garden centre, we would like to take this opportunity to supply your real Christmas tree this year, delivered locally to the following Birmingham postcodes: B72 / B73 / B74 / B23 / B44 / B36 / B37. A delivery cost of £5.00 applies.

Whichever size tree you require, we can supply it and deliver, or if you have transport, they;re ready and waiting to be taken home with you from our garden centre.

According to our aquatic expert Dan Everton it's important to plan ahead now. Keep pond netting in place to prevent leaves from adjacent trees falling in and decaying. You will also need to continue to remove dying foliage from any pond plants. Feed your fish Wheatgerm which is easier for fish to digest at low temperatures. Feed this between October and March especially when the water is below 10º C (50º F).

On Thursday 24th November, Hall's will be attending the Boldmere Lights Switch On. You and your family are warmly invited to join us for an evening of free entertainment and family fun. We are sponsoring this event for the local community and will be bringing Santa with us. Lights will be switched on at 6.00pm.

The street party will include special appearances from Santa & his Reindeer, the stars of Lichfield Garrick Pantomine and see the official switching on of the lights at 6pm. And live music from:
