As beautiful and luxurious as purple flowers are, they can be tricky to use successfully in the garden. Purple is quite a dark colour, so purple flowers can easily be lost against soil or dark green backdrops, especially because many can be quite matt in texture. An all-purple border could be quite a gloomy proposition, but put purple with contrasting colours – vibrant orange, zingy greens, even whites and pale mauves – that will lift it out of the gloom and the effect will be stunning.

Kärcher is the go-to brand that many of us think of when it comes to pressure washers and they’re generally regarded as being among the best. We had high hopes for this mains-powered 130 bar high pressure washer, in Kärcher’s distinctive bright yellow livery. The K4 is one of Kärcher’s mid-range pressure washers, with an RRP of £309.99 (including car cleaning and home kits – without them it is £219.99). That’s quite an investment, so will it prove worth it?
