- Prepare an unbeatable Christmas sauce
- Ready to harvest in July and August
Description
- A gorgeous glossy evergreen plant that's super hardy and thrives in pots, a cranberry plant will brighten up your garden all year long. Soft pink flowers in spring will attract pollinators, the bright red berries appear in July and August, and the autumn colour is worth the price of entry alone.
- Forget the dried up jar at the back of the cupboard from Christmas 2010, now you've got proper homemade cranberry sauce + festive bragging rights for life.
- Packed with vitamins K and C, cranberries are renowned for their antioxidant properties. Sprinkle on your granola, make them into a healthy juice and when you feel sufficiently virtuous, celebrate with a Sea Breeze cocktail.
- Don't worry if your cranberry crops like a beast - they're great for making into jam and they also freeze or dry well, so you can enjoy them all year round.
- Cranberries love an acidic soil, but if yours isn't, just plant them in pots of ericaceous compost or add plenty to the planting hole.

Best plants you will ever get online
I have ordered plants from them twice this year. They arrived well packaged, on time and looked strong and healthy. I feel the staff from Roots plants deal with their plants and customers with passion and care. I can’t wait to order again, price is good as well.
Highly recommended all round
Delivered quickly, perfectly packaged and the tree was in excellent condition. Really healthy and taken to the garden with no problems. Can't recommend highly enough. 5 stars isn't enough!
Satisfied customer
Unlike other online sellers, this company are well ahead in the quality stakes. My plant arrived promptly as per their promise and the plant was much more established and healthy than I had expected. It’s the second time I have ordered from them and I have faith in their promise. Excellent service.
A really good quality tree
A really good quality tree, delivered on time and very well packaged. But the emailed planting advice and supporting information was what really impressed me. Thoroughly recommended.
Exceptional quality
The quality of the plants was exceptional, unlike ones I have had before from local garden centres. Thank you so much. I will definitely be using you again.
Marvellous!
Marvellous service, great plants and fast delivery. Very useful information on how to care for the plants I bought. Easy to use website that makes it far too easy to overindulge in fabulous plants 😂🌱
