How to care for Ruby amethyst container plant collection:
Pot up and grow on under glass until all risk of frost has passed and they can then either be planted outside into a well-prepared bed, or used to fill decorative pots and hanging baskets for the patio.
Pinching out the growing tips will encourage them to become bushier, and feeding with a high-potash fertiliser at regular intervals throughout the summer will promote even more flowers to form.

What's included:
In each collection you will receive the following:
- 5 x Petunia 'Tidal Wave Red Velour': Offering sumptuous colour all summer, this trailing petunia looks wonderful when spilling over the edges of a pot or hanging basket. Alternatively, plant it at the front of the border and let the stems, each studded with rich, velvety red flowers, spread to form ground cover. Supplied as jumbo seedlings. Grows to 50cm.
- 5 x Verbena 'Endurascape Dark Purple': Producing a delightful mass of creeping clusters of deep purple blooms, this beauty flowers abundantly throughout the summer contrasting wonderfully against the bright green foliage. It is ideal for planting in pots, baskets, or the border where it will trail happily in large pools of richly robed ground cover. Supplied as rooted cuttings. Grows to 30cm.
