Sempervivums, the iconic houseleek, were the mainstay of 70's municipal borders and park displays, but today, they have worked their magic and are making a welcome return to our gardens, as people realise that they are a real multipurpose plant. Be part of this succulent revolution and buy your now - let yourself be won over by these fascinating, low-maintenance perennials. Sempervivums form rosettes of colourful, fleshy leaves and are low growing, making them extremely popular as a living carpet of green and an ideal candidate for green roofs and living walls - a welcome addition to any garden because of their colours and diversity of form. Also known as hen and chicks because the freely produced offsets gather around the mother plant in much the same way as chicks around a mother hen. Sempervivums are drought tolerant and will take a roothold in the narrowest of cracks - hence their common name, as they were once used to plug gaps in leaking roofs. Recommended as an ideal plant to spearhead the need to adapt our gardens to be more responsive to climate change. This resurgence in popularity has been driven in part by their undemanding nature - they're very much a 'plant-it-and-leave-it' type of plant - easy to grow and a doddle to maintain, fully winter hardy and produce multiple new plants every year. As a bonus during the summer, the mature rosettes throw out spikes topped with star shaped flowers which insects love, plus they produce offsets, or new plants, every season that are simple to separate and grow as new specimens. Really easy to grow and a favourite with kids, Sempervivums require a well-drained soil in full sun, tolerating drought when established. Supplied as a collection of 6 named plants, 1 of each variety. Please note that varieties may change throughout the year, depending on availability.

Description for Petunia Magica Starfish (Semi-Trailing) 170 Small Plug Plants not available
Rosemary is a versatile herb, providing evergreen interest all year round, fragrant leaves for use in cooking, and nectar-rich flowers for bees in spring. Grow rosemary along a path, either in a well-draining pot or plant-ed in the soil once it matures, so every time you brush past, the leaves release their aromatic oils. Overall, rosemary requires little maintenance during the year except cutting back after flowering to prevent plants becoming straggly and woody. Save the trimmings to propagate new plants or dry them for cooking. Light and Water Rosemary grows best in a sunny, sheltered spot in well-drained soil. It can struggle in heavy clay soils, par-ticularly in winter, when the ground tends to be wetter. Although frost resistance, the combination of the cold and waterlogged soil can kill immature rosemary plants. We suggest you move them inside during the winter. As they prefer to be on the drier side a terracotta pot will suit it well as they allow the soil to dry out faster. We also suggest you grow rosemary in well-drained soil in full sun. Young plants can suffer if their roots are sitting in wet soil in winter, so it’s a good idea to grow rosemary in a container for a couple of years before planting into the garden. Cut back annually (after blooming) to prevent the plant from becoming too woody. These cutting can then be dried out for cooking or propagated. Water when the soil is dry to the touch, water thoroughly and allow it to drain and dry completely before wa-tering again.
