Growing in Scotland is different

Scotland’s weather is changeable, sometimes referred to as four seasons in a day!

The temperature is generally lower in Scotland than the rest of the UK, although it is slightly warmer on the West Coast than the East Coast.  Lower light levels, lots of rain and wind all contribute to a wide variation of growing conditions across Scotland.
