In each collection you will receive five of each of the following:
- Brachyscome ‘Royal Blue’: The delicate lilac-blue daisy-like flowers of ‘Royal Blue’ are produced against fine, softly hairy, dark green leaves. A prolific and pretty half-hardy plant that will enhance the summer sunshine in bedding schemes, rockeries or hanging baskets. Grows to 25cm. Supplied as rooted cuttings.
- Euphorbia graminea ‘Glamour’: Wispy, whimsical white blooms held above glossy green foliage by delicate, slender branching stems. The perfect filler for hanging baskets and pots to accompany stronger colours, forms or textures, it produces clouds of small, airy white flowers from late spring through to early autumn. Grows to 30cm. Supplied as jumbo seedlings.
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 (9cm plants don’t need potting on but require initial frost protection). 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.
