8 must-have plants to brighten up your garden
Nick Hamilton owner of Barnsdale Gardens has shared his favourite plants and flowers you should consider adding to your garden, borders and pots.
Tricyrtis
A spectacular plant that gives a real exotic feel to any garden with its orchid-like, spotted flowers giving the impression that this plant should be tender but it is 'as tough as old boots!'.
Penstemon
I love this plants genus of because most will flower all summer and autumn. They'll grow in sun or semi-shade in a well drained soil and produce a non-stop display of tubular flowers in an array of colours and colour combination to suit all tastes.
Luzula sylvatica 'Marginata'
With the evergreen leaves edged with yellow it's great asset is that it
will grow in sun or shade in any type of soil and is great as groundcover in the hardest spot to fill - dry shade.
Eryngium x zabelii 'Big Blue'
A stunning, nectar-rich plant that will feed the beneficial insects in your
garden. Leave the flowerheads once they have turned brown because they look stunning with winter frost and snow, extending the plant's interest period.
Sarcococca hookeriana 'Winter Gem'
If you need winter scent then look no further than this compact, evergreen shrub. The scent is stunning and the evergreen leaves create an excellent backdrop for the summer flowers.
Cornus sanguinea 'Anny's Winter Orange'
A dwarf version of 'Midwinter Fire' the very colourful stems create a stunning winter display, particularly on sunny days.
Rosa 'Noisette Carnee'
A very well-behaved climbing rose that is perfect for training over an arch, pergola or gazebo. The small, 'noisette' flowers are blush-pink and produce the most amazing clove scent constantly from June to November.
Sanguisorba hakusanensis 'Lilac Squirrel'
I've never seen a squirrel with a drooping, shaggy lilac tail, but this variety will give your garden an unusual and different look throughout summer. It does need a moisture retentive soil but will grow in sun or semi-shade.
Another commented: 'Saw these today, they look lovely! Thanks for posting."
"They are lovely," penned a third.
Meanwhile a fourth said: "These are well nice."
Someone else added: 'I have them, they are lovely."

Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 5 Aimee treated herself to a selection of faux flowers to add a splash of colour Credit: Instagram / @bm_stores 5 She used her bargain finds to decorate her patio space Credit: Instagram / @bm_stores The lifestyle influencer, who lives in Wiltshire with her partner Sean, said she wanted to create the perfect space for entertaining guests. Sharing a video of her summery accessories on @thecountryreno, she wrote: "This year is the year of our garden, after 18 months living here we are now ready to start making her ready for guests and entertaining, BBQs and sundowners. "Our table was a Facebook marketplace bargain last year for £100 too, and now I'm headed to B&M with £100 to see if I could make something beautiful." She bagged herself an adorable lemon jug for just £3 after it was on sale from £5 and pretty farmhouse-style plant pots from £3. "£100 feels like a lot of money but these days would barely get you a seat cushion in some shops but I knew that B&M would have some bargains and they did not disappoint!! "I was surprised to see so many things on offer too - especially that lemon jug." To keep pesky insects away for those late-night tipples, she found citronella torches on bamboo spikes to give a feeling of being on a tropical island. The candle and holders are just £4. Aimee also jumped on the faux flower trend, which she joked meant she couldn't kill them. They vary in price, but range from £2 to £8. B&M launches their children's outdoor range which is perfect for summer - there's a £2 bargain that'll easily keep the kids entertained She found hanging baskets filled with colourful and realistic plastic flowers, which she added to an outhouse wall. Followers flocked to praise her haul, with one writing: "Such good finds! That lemon jug! "You did a brilliant job finding this all and styling it beautifully together." "Great bargains and looks lovely," echoed a second. "Impressive job the wall hanging baskets look lovely in that position too x" said a third. Remember that some products are limited to selected stores, so always check with your local shop before wasting a trip. How to save money at B&M Shoppers have saved hundreds of pounds a year by using B&M's scanner app. The scanner lets you see if an item's price is cheaper than advertised on the shop floor label. Products that are typically discounted are seasonal items and old stock that B&M is trying to shift. The app is free to download off the B&M Stores mobile app via Google Play or the Apple App Store. According to one ex-B&M manager, you'll want to visit your local branch at 10am on a Wednesday too. Here's how you can join the B&M bargain hunt: Download the B&M app for free on any smartphone with an App Store or Google Play. Once you've installed it on your device, click on the option labelled "more" on the bottom, right-hand side of the app home page. You'll then find an option that says "barcode scanner". Click on this and you'll open a camera screen. Use the camera to hover over the barcode of the product you wish to check. If the price comes up as lower, take it to the cash desk and it will automatically scan at the lower price. You don't need to sign up to the B&M app to use the barcode scanner. If, like Aimee, you want to transform your garden space as the weather warms up, B&M has you covered. One product guaranteed to make your backyard the envy of your neighbours is the Stained Glass Hanging Decoration. The purse-friendly buy comes in a wide variety of colours and patterns from stunning floral designs to captivating mandala patterns. Priced at just £4 each, these beautiful hanging decorations will revamp your garden, without you having to break the bank. Plus, when the sunlight catches on the stained glass, it will create a spectacular glow which will transform your garden into a paradise. B&M said: "This unique Stained Glass Hanging Decoration will add a touch of colour and beauty to your garden. "Perfect for hanging in your garden and adding to your outdoor decor." Another product guaranteed to give your garden a glow-up, is the Flower Solar Light. The bargain buy comes in a variety of different colours, including yellow and pink, so is guaranteed to inject your garden with a stunning splash of colour. It features an adorable flower design, with a sweet bee perched on top of it, which is bound to make you smile every time you sit in the garden. 5 Heritage Gardening Hook Plant Pot is just £3 Credit: B&M 5 This lemon Jug is on sale for just £3 Credit: BM

Best time to shop at retailers like B&M and Poundland to save money and find the best bargains
Do you have any insider shopping tips? We'd love to hear from you please email: money@ SHOP TO IT Best time to shop at retailers like B&M and Poundland to save money and find the best bargains KNOWING when to visit your favourite shop could be the key to saving money. From when yellow stickers are placed on items to reduce prices, to the best day of the week for new products - timing is everything when it comes to shopping on the high street and supermarkets. 1 We spoke to a deals expert who shared the best time to shop at your favourite store The Sun spoke to Tom Church, co-founder of discount code website who shared the best time to visit shops. B&M The best time to head to the budget store is Wednesday morning, according to Tom. He said: "This is when most of the new reductions are dropped." To increase your chances of spotting a deal, it also recommended that shoppers download the B&M Scanner App. The scanner lets you see if an item's price is cheaper than advertised on the shop floor label. Products that are typically discounted are seasonal items and old stock that B&M is trying to shift. The app is free to download off the B&M Stores mobile app via Google Play or the Apple App Store. Often, products will be marked down in the system, but the staff haven't had the chance to change display prices. Parents are racing to B&M desperate to nab 'the cutest' kids' cabin cases - they're ideal for EasyJet & Jet2 passengers Tom added: "It's always worth scanning items to check if they're cheaper than they seem. Products can scan for as little as 10p.' Home Bargains If you are planning a trip to Home Bargain's then it is best to head their first thing in the morning to grab the best deals. That is because most the larger Home Bargains stores get deliveries at around 7:30am everyday. Tom said to make sure you take a good look around as you enter the store. He explained: "Often, Home Bargains keeps the best deals at the front to lure you in. You don't want to walk straight past them on the way in!." Boots The high street chemist can be a great place to bag a bargain on pricey makeup and skin care. Singing up for its Advantage Card loyalty scheme can help you earn points on their purchases. These can then be redeemed for money off future purchases. Shoppers collect three points for every £1 they spend. Tom said the best time to shop at Boots is during one of their Points Events. These events allow shoppers to even triple points on your entire shop, or selected products and ranges. So for example, if you spend a set amount like £50 you get 1,000 extra points, which is worth £10. Tom said it is also worth seeing if you can stack any offers. He explained: "For example, if something is on a 3 for 2 offer, and then you can get double points on top.' Superdrug Superdrug has frequent offers and shopping incentives. So, Tom said the best time to shop depends on "what you're buying, and timing your shop to coincide with a relevant offer". The store regularly has 3 for 2 offers on beauty products, so if you're restocking your makeup bag, it may be better to hold off until that offer comes back around. If you are planning a trip to one of it's store you can check what offers are running ahead of time on the Superdrug website. Tom said you can also get bargains if you're a Health & Beautycard member, which is free to sign up for. Customers earn one point for every £1 you spend. You can spend your points in multiples of 100. This means that you can chose to use: 100 points = £1 200 points = £2 300 points = £3 and so on ALDI The German discounter is known for it's middle aisle Special Buys, selling everything from air fryers to dupes for Dyson hairstylers. The deals drop on Thursdays and Sundays, so going first thing on those days is your best bet. But if you are on the hunt for marked down food, it's best to head in first thing in the morning. That's because Aldi slashes the price of food and other items first thing in the morning rather than later in the day like its competitors WHAT TIME OF DAY? The store also has red stickers to show an item has been reduced, unlike the yellow ones you may see in Tesco or M&S. Tom said: "If you get there early, you have a better chance of bagging them. Just look out for red stickers.' POUNDLAND The bargain store can be a great place to pick up cheap sweets and even clothes. Tom said the best time to shop at the high street store is the morning. He said: "Stock is replenished either at night, or first thing, so you should have a better chance of finding what you want." But if you are planning a trip to one of it stores, you should be aware the brand has made a major change to its loyalty scheme. The discount store has scrapped its exclusive lower prices for Poundland Perk members, which had worked similarly to Tesco's Clubcard offers. Poundland told The Sun the loyalty scheme shake-up is aimed at lowering prices on the shelves for all customers without the "hassle" of looking for a voucher in the shop's app. Customers can still collect points on their shops and there will be weekly competitions to win points and prizes. Poundland shoppers get Perk Points when they spend money at the retailer and these can be turned into vouchers when they've accumulated at least 5,000 points.

How to bag a bargain SUN Savers Editor Lana Clements explains how to find a cut-price item and bag a bargain… Sign up to loyalty schemes of the brands that you regularly shop with. Big names regularly offer discounts or special lower prices for members, among other perks. Sales are when you can pick up a real steal. Retailers usually have periodic promotions that tie into payday at the end of the month or Bank Holiday weekends, so keep a lookout and shop when these deals are on. Sign up to mailing lists and you'll also be first to know of special offers. It can be worth following retailers on social media too. When buying online, always do a search for money off codes or vouchers that you can use and are just two sites that round up promotions by retailer. Scanner apps are useful to have on your phone. app has a scanner that you can use to compare prices on branded items when out shopping. Bargain hunters can also use B&M's scanner in the app to find discounts in-store before staff have marked them out. And always check if you can get cashback before paying which in effect means you'll get some of your money back or a discount on the item.
