The popular cut flower and houseplant Gerbera has been upgraded to a garden perennial, giving an amazing 5 months of colour from spring to autumn every year. The world's first Hardy Gerbera in a range of bright, zingy colours, the 'Garvinea Series' was launched to great acclaim across Europe, where the Dutch breeders developed an improved plant with much bigger flowers, and even longer lasting performance. Winter hardy to around -8C (although avoid severe winter wet), and flowering for several seasons of colour, the highly distinctive flowers of Garvinea simply keep coming - up to 50 on a 2-year-old plant. Easy to grow and keep, they're also highly resistant to pests and diseases, making them the ideal garden plant! We love them potted up in bright & bold planters - in a mix of 4 zingy, starburst colours (Opal Fruits if you are a certain age!) you can mix and match your plants to your planters and create an eye-catching display for your patio! Suppled as 4 x mixed colour plants in 7cm pots ready for potting on or planting out when all risk of frost has passed, Garvineas are herbaceous, so die back completely underground over winter, to emerge bigger and better next year.
It's incredible but true... these compact beauties really will produce a tower of striking star-shapes blooms continuously for 6 months - every year! The BOULEVARD(R) series of patio clematis has been bred specifically for a compact growing habit and a precocious flowering nature - so you can create a massive colour impact from a very limited space. Perfect for growing in small spaces, in pots and containers, so are ideal for modern gardens where space may be limited. The plants will never get out of hand and reach a mature height of around 1-1.5m (3-5ft), and as they flower all along the stem from the leaf axils, these splendid clematis are covered in blooms right from top to toe! They are perfect for growing in patio containers and large pots and are a 'must' for town gardens and balconies. Flowering repeatedly from early summer to late autumn, they form a glorious pillar of colour. Plants only require a minimum of annual maintenance - cut all stems back to 15cm (6in) in Feb/March- PLUS they are totally winter hardy too! Supplied as young plants in 10.5cm pots ready for growing on, these unique clematis are simply fantastic value for money.
