Bubblegum pink blooms pop against a soft cascade of silver foliage, creating a vibrant yet elegant display. The mix of bold colour and delicate texture brings energy and charm to pots, baskets, or sunny borders, lasting all season long.
In each collection you will receive ten bedding plants, with five of each of the following:
- Marguerite 'Grandaisy Pink Halo': This pretty marguerite boasts a neat and bushy habit, making ‘Grandaisy Pink Halo’ a superb, free-flowering, long-lasting plant for patio pots, baskets and sunny borders. Beginning its display early in the season, a halo of bubblegum pink petals surround a ring of pillar-box red at the centre of each bloom right through to early autumn. Grows to 40cm.
- Helichrysum 'Silver Mist': A trailing, woolly, silver-leaved foliage plant, ‘Silver Mist’ makes a beautiful, branching foil plant for mixed containers or baskets. Easy to grow, this Helichrysum is a tender, perennial favourite with the woolly leaves intensifying in colour with more light. Grows to 50cm.
Pot up and grow on under glass until all risk of frost has passed and they can then either be planted outside into a well-prepared bed, or used to fill decorative pots and hanging baskets for the patio (9cm plants don’t need potting on but require initial frost protection).
Pinching out the growing tips will encourage them to become bushier, and feeding with a high-potash fertiliser at regular intervals throughout the summer will promote even more flowers to form.
