Thank goodness sunny weather is back on the weather forecast, and it couldn’t have come at a better time, as Aldi is dropping a stylish green garden umbrella - I can’t believe it’s only £12.99!

The best garden parasols are not only a practical garden shade idea, but can help make your garden look miles more stylish if you opt for the right one. As one would expect, the best-looking garden parasols often come with a higher price tag - until now, that is.

Landing in stores today (11 June), Aldi’s Belavi Garden Umbrella (£12.99) is perfect for giving your garden a resort look. Its green scallops are the effortlessly stylish garden upgrade you need this summer.

Aldi’s gorgeous new parasol is available in either pink or green. Both are two-toned, with the darker shade making up a pretty wave along the bottom of the umbrella. The pink colourway in particular looks fairly similar to John Lewis’ £150 Scallop Wood-Effect Wind-Up Parasol on Bon Bon Pink, while the green is a little more similar to the Wayfair Market Parasol (Was £220.99, now £139.99).

What’s clear, however, is that the Aldi garden umbrella is an absolute steal in comparison to similar alternatives. Lidl’s chic garden parasol aside, it is rare to see a garden umbrella look this good, at such a budget price. But considering a garden parasol, at its core, is a budget-friendly way to shade a garden, I’m not complaining.

The green and pink colourways on offer wouldn’t look out of place in a boutique hotel. I can just picture them by the sunlounger of some boujee resort in the South of France or Italy. That chic, hotel-look has been trending this summer, too.

This Aldi garden umbrella is a sure way to achieve this look. The parasol is approximately 1.8m in height and has a three-position tilting function. The height is also adjustable, so you can tailor it to your needs. Aldi claims it has excellent UV protection, too, stating it has SPF80 per UV.

Plus, also on sale at Aldi today, is a rectangular parasol base (£19.99). It weighs 25kg to keep your parasol secure and has an adapter to suit a range of parasols, which means it will suit the garden umbrella nicely. It’s also made from polished granite to complete the hotel look.

For such a good price, I can’t imagine the Aldi parasol will stay on the shelves for long. So, I’ve rounded up a few more stylish options you can shop online.

You can always count on Aldi to deliver style on a budget. And if you're looking for affordable garden upgrades this summer, Aldi’s middle aisle is a great place to look.
