Product information

A cottage garden favourite, they look spectacular planted en masse in the summer border and will provide a carpet of colour. The colourful blooms are trumpet or funnel shaped and produce a wonderfully sweet scent when they flower, from July. Ideal cut flowers.

Planting location: Beds, borders or in patio pots
Flowering period: July - September, Planting period: February - April
Dig soil improver and bone meal into the planting hole before planting. In heavy clay soils add horticultural grit to the bottom of the planting hole Remove faded flowers to prolong flowering. Water well during dry spells. Not winter hardy. When foliage has died back, usually after the first frost, cut back and lift the corms from the soil. To over-winter, dry the corms out somewhere warm before storing them in a cool, dry frost-free place. Replant in the same way next year.
