Pot up plugs into 9cm pots and grow on for transplanting into final containers or baskets later on. Grow plants on in warm frost free conditions. Pinch back the stems while the plants are still young to encourage them to produce bushier growth and more flowers.
When all risk of frost has passed, gradually acclimatise plants to outdoor conditions over a period of 7 to 10 days. Choose a sunny site for their final position. Feed and water plants regularly, particularly during hot, dry periods. Deadhead faded flowers to encourage more blooms to be produced and extend their vibrant display.
We will do our best to ship your plants or bulbs to you at the ideal time for planting as stated against each product.
