HYACINTH NOUVELLUS Hemp Cushion - Phlox

This decorative cushion brings a subtle sense of English garden character to any room. The hemp fabric displays a botanical print in soft phlox purple, detailed with delicate foliage and floral motifs. The touch is firm yet inviting, with traceable wool filling providing gentle structure. Piped edging frames each cushion precisely for a refined finish. The print draws on traditional motifs, created by skilled makers in England. Hemp lends a natural surface with visible texture, while the wool comes from carefully traced sources through The Woolkeepers. Suits placement on a favourite armchair or bedroom bench. Made in small runs, this piece is available in limited quantities each season.

Planting & Care – 3-in-1 Combination Peach Tree

Site Selection

Choose a location with excellent sunlight to ensure full sweetness and color.
Good airflow reduces fungal pressure, especially in humid or coastal climates.

Soil Preparation

Prefers well-drained loam or sandy loam; avoid clay-heavy or waterlogged soil.
Add compost to improve drainage and fertility.
Ideal soil pH: 6.0–7.0.

Planting Instructions

Plant at the same depth as in the nursery pot.
Water deeply and mulch with 2–3 inches of organic matter.
Keep mulch a few inches away from the trunk.

Watering & Fertilizing

Maintain consistent moisture during the first 1–2 years.
Deep water 1–2 times per week in heat or drought.
Peaches are medium feeders—use a balanced organic fertilizer in early spring if growth appears weak.
Avoid overfertilization, which reduces fruit quality and increases disease risk.

Pruning & Graft Management

Prune more vigorously growing grafts to maintain balance across the tree.
Encourage an open center to improve light penetration.
Thin fruit clusters to improve size and prevent limb damage.

Harvest & Use

Frost offers classic peach flavor with strong leaf curl resistance.
Salish Summer (Q-1-8) produces juicy, richly flavored fruit well-suited to cooler climates.
Indian Free provides brilliant red flesh and outstanding complexity.
Muir delivers exceptionally sweet, aromatic fruit.

General Tips

Combination peach trees thrive when graft vigor is balanced yearly through pruning.
Renew mulch annually and water consistently for best fruit quality.
Leaf curl–resistant varieties reduce the need for sprays in many climates.
