Tray bonne

Bustaseed is a new kind of propagation kit, with open-fronted modules, enabling seedlings and cuttings to be gently tipped out with minimal root disturbance when ready to pot on. And while they’re growing, you can check on root development and monitor for signs of disease or pest. Devised by Belfast-based Niall Magee and guaranteed for five years, the kit includes a base tray, seven rows of five cells and a clear lid in tough injection-moulded plastic that is fully recyclable. It costs £15.99 (0755 971161; bustaseed.com).
