How you will receive your Plants:

Selected by our team of experts and sent from our nursery, you will receive your plant in a 9cm pot, ready to plant out once all risk of frost is past.

Once the frosts are over, harden the Plants off for at least a week before planting out by placing them outdoors during the day and bringing them back indoors at night.

Planting tips and hints:

Dig a hole approximately twice as deep and 3 times as wide as the plant’s rootball. If your soil is heavy mix in a soil improver before backfilling. Place the plant in the hole so that it sits at the same level in the ground as it did in the pot. Firm the soil around the plant and water thoroughly. When planting in a container, use a good quality multipurpose compost.

Feeding and aftercare:

Water regularly. Once the flowers appear, feed fortnightly with a high-potash liquid feed such as tomato feed.
