Gardening
Stylish alfresco dining
in your own back garden
It’s the time of year
when everyone likes to
get out in the garden –
preferably just taking it
easy on the patio.
At Island garden centres Honnor
and Jeffrey, there’s the usual buzz
of activity around the displays
of garden furniture - particularly
the large range from
Alexander Rose,
a company
established
in 1994 and
recognised UK
and Europe-
wide for the
quality, design
and comfort
of its outdoor
furniture ranges.
From the 20
different benches
and numerous dining
sets, there’s certainly a piece of
furniture to suit you. Much of
the range is in stock, but Honnor
and Jeffrey can also order in
anything from the Alexander Rose
catalogues. The newest addition
this year is the Ocean Pearl Wave
table, with a weave pattern that
produces an optical illusion
through the glass top, making
it a real statement piece for any
contemporary garden.
Customers are also looking
further ahead to the summer,
visiting the Weber barbeque
showroom with its display of
charcoal and gas barbeques
and accessories, all designed to
make outdoor dining a smooth
experience. Having invented the
kettle barbecue in 1952, Weber
is the
undisputed
brand leader,
and world-
renowned for
quality and innovation.
The range includes The Genesis
II series – Weber’s newest gas
models – which include high
performance gas burners, infinity
ignition and are iGrill ready. iGrill
is an app-controlled thermometer
– it monitors food from start to
finish and notifies you once it has
reached the perfect temperature,
to remove from the barbeque,
allowing you to barbecue with
confidence and precision, and
impress your family and friends!
For the charcoal devotees,
Weber’s Mastertouch barbeque
is a must-have: with a gourmet
barbeque system (GBS) grate
included, you can choose several
specialised inserts to enhance
your barbeque experience. Inserts
include: poultry roaster for beer can
chicken; sear grate for perfect steak,
or a pizza stone for that authentic
outdoor cooked pizza. The GBS
inserts also work on a number of
other barbeques, the complete
range can be seen in store.
