Keep squirrels away from your flowerbeds with these reduced garden plants

Protecting your spring displays from hungry squirrels can be a constant battle for gardeners, but choosing the right varieties can provide a natural solution. Gardening Express is currently offering significant discounts on two garden staples that squirrels typically avoid due to their scent and taste.

• - Tete a Tete Dwarf Daffodils 'In the Green': These popular miniature daffodils are currently reduced from £2.99 to just £1. Supplied 'in the green', they are ready to be planted immediately for a reliable burst of yellow this spring. Squirrels generally dislike the alkaloids found in narcissi bulbs, making these a safe bet for your borders.

• - English Lavender Hidcote Blue: Known for its intense fragrance and deep purple blooms, this hardy lavender is a fantastic deterrent for various garden pests. You can currently save £5 per plant, with prices down from £12.99 to £7.99. For those looking to create a low hedge or larger display, the price drops further to £6.99 each when purchasing 12 plants.
