Save £250 on giant Tuscan olive tree that turns patios into Mediterranean haven
Elevate your outdoor space this summer with a giant Tuscan olive tree that will add a Mediterranean flair to your patio or garden - and right now, it's £250 less
This extra-large, heavy-duty Tuscan olive tree is currently available for £149.99, down from £399.99. This Gardening Express deal saves shoppers a whopping £250. It is perfect for planting in large containers in a sun-drenched courtyard or patio, and all you'll need to complete your own Tuscan terrace at home is a nice glass of Chianti.
Also suitable to be planted directly into the ground in the garden, this giant Tuscan olive tree is sure to thrive in any well-drained, bright spot.
Boasting elegant, grey-green leaves that remain all year, alongside tiny, fragrant, creamy-white flowers that are followed by edible, green fruits, this olive tree is an investment as it offers an immediate and impressive impact that lasts through the seasons.
Excellent for a sunny, Mediterranean-style garden, these olive trees are slow-growing with a nice stem and attractive silvery leaves. If you've ever admired olive trees on your holidays, the good news is you can now admire your own from your garden.
The olive tree flowers during the summer, providing ample green edible fruit that appears in the autumn, ripening to black. What's more, this tree will last many years, even growing to a ripe old age of hundreds of years old. Each year, these olive trees will produce more and more succulent fruit, especially if you can provide a bright sunny position, ideally sheltered from cold winter winds.
If you're planning on growing in containers, you can place the olive tree in the conservatory through the winter months, or sheltered against the house, where it will benefit from the warmth and shelter provided by a wall.
Shoppers who have added one of these gems to their outdoor space can't stop gushing about the beauty of this tree. One 5-star reviewer raves: "All first class. The tree was well wrapped and in very good condition. I have been buying plants from Gardeningexpress for two years now, and I can say they are simply the best."
Another shares: " Wonderful tree! The size is incredible and seem to be much more expensive elsewhere. The quality of the tree and condition is also fantastic."
And this buyer beams: "Really big trees delivered in great condition. Exactly as advertised. I'm a regular customer and they never let me down."

Aldi shoppers rush to buy ‘beautiful' garden must-have scanning at 50% less than high street brands
ALDI shoppers are racing to buy a "beautiful" garden middle-aisle bargain which is just half the price of other high street brands. The Garden Bright Solar Glass Bird Bath is currently on sale for £17.99. 1 The bargain was spotted by a shopper in the Aldi UK Shoppers Facebook group, who posted a picture of the furniture item. They wrote: "Managed to grab one in my local Aldi, so pleased as almost half the price of other places at £17.99. 3 different designs to choose from." Similar solar glass bird baths are on sale at other UK retailers for more than double the price. For example, B&Q is selling a Taylor and Brown Solar Glass Bird Bath Fountain, with a hand-painted sunflower design, for £39.99. Shoppers hailed Aldi's bird bath as "beautiful", with one replying to the Facebook post: "I want one". Others had already snapped up the item from Aldi's middle-aisle. One fan wrote: "I got the hummingbird one today - I love it, can't wait for it to light up tonight!" However, some shoppers who had purchased the bird bath shared valuable tips on how to care for it and prevent damage. "Don't leave them out over winter," one user said. "If the water freezes they crack. I've had two go on my over the years." Another said: "Mine is fab keep in conservatory no prob." Aldi is selling a 'rechargeable' essential for just $9.99 – shoppers say they'll be 'wearing one all day' this summer The bird bath is made of a glass bowl and metal stand, and features six cool white LED lights. It is 53cm high and 35.5cm in width. It's available in three animal-inspired designs - bee, hummingbird and peacock - while stocks last. On its website, Aldi says: "Make sure the birds have a stylish and safe space included in your garden this summer with this Solar Bird Bath." The product will only be available to buy in stores, however, as Aldi doesn't offer a home delivery service. As well as the bird bath, Aldi is also selling a Solar Blossom Tree for £19.99, featuring 100 LED lights and pink cherry blossom style flowers. You can find your nearest Aldi branch by using the retailer's store locator tool, found via If you want to find out what Aldi Specialbuys are in stores at any time, you can visit: How to save money on your food shop Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how you can save hundreds of pounds a year: Odd boxes - plenty of retailers offer slightly misshapen fruit and veg or surplus food at a discounted price. Lidl sells five kilos of fruit and veg for just £1.50 through its Waste Not scheme while Aldi shoppers can get Too Good to Go bags which contain £10 worth of all kinds of products for £3.30. Sainsbury's also sells £2 "Taste Me, Don't Waste Me" fruit and veg boxes to help shoppers reduced food waste and save cash. Food waste apps - food waste apps work by helping shops, cafes, restaurants and other businesses shift stock that is due to go out of date and passing it on to members of the public. Some of the most notable ones include Too Good to Go and Olio. Too Good to Go's app is free to sign up to and is used by millions of people across the UK, letting users buy food at a discount. Olio works similarly, except users can collect both food and other household items for free from neighbours and businesses.

But what time to head out to get the best deals varies depending on the retailer. You can see the best times for each supermarket here. Super cheap bargains - sign up to bargain hunter Facebook groups like Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK where shoppers regularly post hauls they've found on the cheap, including food finds. "Downshift" - you will almost always save money going for a supermarket's own-brand economy lines rather than premium brands. The move to lower-tier ranges, also known as "downshifting" and hailed by consumer expert Martin Lewis, could save you hundreds of pounds a year on your food shop. Save money at Aldi Keeping your eyes peeled for Aldi's Specialbuys is a great way to save money at the retailer. It's also worth keeping an eye out for any red sticker products when you're doing your grocery shopping, which are added to items going out of date or that are slightly damaged. It's best to get to your local store early if you're looking for discounts, as Aldi tends to add the stickers to items in the morning. This also tends to be the best time to get middle-aisle bargains, with shoppers sometimes queuing as early as 4am for some products. You can also look out for Too Good to Go bags, which cost just £3.30 with £10 worth of food approaching its sell-by or use-by date.
