But for those of us who aren’t too keen on gardening like myself, or don’t know quite where to start, Muddy Trowel is the go-to for busy mums on a budget. They have a beautiful range of quality, British-grown plants and plant pot starter kits that can help transform virtually any outdoor space, quickly and without fuss.

And for those with little to no garden space at all, they’ve got you covered too with a range of indoor plants.

Muddy Trowel’s curated plant kits are my favourite because they have taken the guesswork out of gardening and are an ideal activity to do with the kids. Each kit comes with everything you’ll need to create your own instant floral or herb garden display at home. Just the right amount of peat-free compost, a range of sustainably made eco-pots to choose from, locally grown perennial plants and flowers that keep growing back year on year, and even super simple step-by-step instructions. You will love the collectable postcards.

These kits have sparkled some creativity and desire to stay outdoor this Spring and Summer to create plant zones around the house and garden. Clustering different size pots and colourful plants together in one area will create a tropical oasis. I have placed my Gin vase and aromatic plants to fill a shady corner of my garden that rarely sees sunlight with these shade-loving plants. These pots can be used to border off the BBQ area to keep it safer for the kids playing outside.
