This product is offered for sale for home delivery exclusively via our website only. The images represent established plants, the supplied product may be younger. All heights listed are approximate and fully established plant heights may vary. The amount of foliage, buds or bloom on the plant will depend on what part of the season the product is purchased. Please see description below for full product details.The perfect softest powder pink patio shrub, Lavatera 'Barnsley baby' has taken the huge flower power of it's vigorous cousins, and focussed it all on a much smaller and naturally compact form. It is very easy to grow, very tough and robust in rain and shine, and in summer produces lovely candyfloss pink flower displays that smother the plant, as the strings of buds open from bottom to top of each and every stem. Perfect in 20-30cm patio pots, simply keep watered and fed monthly, and cut back once a year before new growth starts - a very low maintenance but high reward plant indeed.Top Tips- Mallows can be slow to show signs of life in early spring, so you'll need a little more patience than normal before it returns to bud - don't worry it's a late riser!Care GuidePlanting Advice for Lavetera 'Barnsley baby':- Grow in full sun in moist, well-drained soil. Alternatively, can be grown successfully in a pot.- Before planting, prepare the soil by digging over and removing any weeds.- Individually knock out each plant from its container. Look at the roots if they are circling around the compost, it is best to tease them out. To do this, push your fingers into the rootball along the bottom edge and pull. Do this in a couple of places. This should encourage the roots to spread into the surrounding soil.- Next use a trowel or spade to create a hole just deep and wide enough to set in the rootball.- The aim is to bury just the roots, leaving the bases of the stems (when in growth in summer) or the shoots (in spring) above ground.- Firm back around the soil, using your hand for small clumps and your heel on larger areas.- Water in well to settle the soil and prevent desiccation.Aftercare Advice for your Tree Mallow 'Barnsley Baby':- Please note that plants will die back over the winter months, emerging from the soil again in the spring.- Your mallow will need regular water when first planted until established. After that, they fairly maintenance free.- Feed plants regularly during the growing season with a general purpose feed such as our Blooming Fast soluble fertiliser.Pruning Advice for Barnsley Baby:- Pruning lavatera is best undertaken in spring when all risk of frost has passed and new buds are swelling.- Prune all stems back to about 30cm (12in) above ground level.Planting Time:March - OctoberFlowering Time:July - SeptemberAbout You GardenEstablished for over 50 years, our award winning trusted plant supplier are based in South Lincolnshire.
