    This brightly coloured combination of 10 plants will offer dazzling colour throughout the summer. Supplied as rooted cuttings and jumbo seedlings.

  • Calibrachoa 'Can-Can Orange' ('Balcanoran'): The vibrantly and richly-coloured calibrachoa is a stunning, profusely flowering summer bedding plant, ideal for scrambling over the edges of a pot or hanging basket. Grows to 30 cm. Supplied as 5 rooted cuttings.

  • Verbena 'Showboat Midnight': This long-flowering, velvety purple verbena, opposite to orange on the colour wheel, works wonderfully well spilling over the edges of pots and containers. Grows to 30cm. Supplied as 5 jumbo seedlings.

    Grown individually in cell trays, each plant measures about 7 - 10cm tall (from the base of the root to the top of the plant). Delivered in plastic-free packaging, they are ideal for keen gardeners who have a greenhouse, where the plants can be grown on until they are ready for planting outside after all risk of frost has passed.

    Please note: We grow these especially for you, so we do request that full payment is made when you place your order. See above for despatch dates. To ensure that your plants arrive in the best possible condition each pack will be despatched individually. Please also be aware that the pot in the photograph is not included in the collection.

  • Garden care: Grow on under glass and plant out after all risk of frost has passed. Dead head throughout the summer, applying a liquid feed every and feed at regular intervals with a high-potash fertiliser throughout summer.
