Perennials & bedding

Seasonal colour grown on site, from spring bedding to summer perennials. All of our bedding is grown here from the start.

Choosing healthy perennials and bedding

Pick sturdy, compact plants over big ones in full flower; smaller plants often settle in better.
The roots should fill the pot, neither a tight mat round the edge nor barely any at all.
Moss, liverwort or weeds on the compost usually mean a plant has sat in its pot too long.
On perennials, look for fresh shoots coming up from the base, a good sign the plant will come back.
Leaves should be a healthy colour, without yellowing, spots or very soft, forced growth.

Is this hardy, or will a late frost kill it if it goes out too early?
Has this been hardened off, or does it need a couple of weeks getting used to outside?
Which of these come back next year, and which last just one season?
What will still be flowering in late summer, once the early colour is over?
