Rudbeckia 'Enchanted Ember' is a captivating variety that comes straight from our own breeding programme. The mellow, burnt orange shades of each semi-double flower deepen as the blooms mature.
An award-winning Fuchsia that boasts an abundance of dainty, elegant blooms with a dusky aubergine, almost black-coloured corolla surrounded by delicate, glossy crimson-red sepals. The decorative leaves are a bonus being deep green with hints of purple veins and the stems also mirror this colour, turning much darker in the autumn to contrast the flower colour beautifully. Blooming from early summer to the first frosts, this compact shrub is fully hardy and makes the perfect addition to any garden, whether planted into the border or into a large pot. Fully deserving its coveted RHS Award of Garden Merit, you can be sure that this is a proven garden performer, guaranteed to be suitable for UK gardeners at every level of experience. You can therefore plant this in the garden with confidence, for stunning displays for many years to come. Perfect for borders, pots & containers, they will provide structure and colour all summer long. These very hardy, reliable garden performers will thrive in your garden, coming back with bigger and better displays each year, and in such a range of flower colours, flower shapes and habits. Supplied as 6 jumbo plug plants, ready to grow on before planting out.
When grown in alkaline soil, Hydrangea macrophylla 'Glowing Embers' lives up to its name by producing two flushes of firey, pink flowers in July and August, which turn a darker shade of maroon in the late autumn. If the soil is acidic, the blooms will have an equally attractive blue tone. Whatever their colour, the hardy shrub's impressive flowerheads make a great addition to borders and cut flower arrangements. When grown in sunny or partially shady conditions, they can even maintain their shape until December, making for a wonderful display on frosty mornings. The plant's foliage is another great feature, for its compact habit makes it well-suited to patio containers. Height: 1m (3'3). Spread: 1m (3'3).
