Delightful and elegant pure white flowers with a golden central boss of stamens rise above delicate filigree-like foliage. This robust, compact form is more resilient to the fluctuations and vagaries of our summers.

  • Garden care:
    Pot on and grow on in a well-lit and ventilated frost free environment (such as a greenhouse, coldframe or conservatory). Plant out after all risk of frost has passed.

    Pinch out the growing tips to encourage bushier growth, and feed at regular intervals throughout summer with a high-potash fertiliser. Taller plants may need supporting with brushwood stems in exposed positions.
