Narcissus ‘Tête-à-tête’

Narcissus ‘Tête-à-tête’ are one of the brightest and most popular dwarf daffodil varieties we have this time of year. Ranging from 12cm-15cm the relatively small size makes it an ideal plant for containers or additions to decorative borders. The golden yellow flower appears early in spring

We often recommend buying potted plants in spring for instant colour to brighten up your garden in minutes.

Azalea Japonicas

 

You can ask around and in our opinion, there are not many better sights than seeing an Azalea bloom in the garden in spring. This includes our range of Azalea Japonicas. The simple, easy to care shrubs boast so many colours but the Japonicas show a beautiful pink colour and instantly adds that wow factor that your garden is missing. 

To keep azaleas looking healthy, it is essential that you choose an appropriate planting location and practice proper azalea care. Azaleas actually look the most attractive when they are planted alone, however, mass plantings work well in larger areas, such as wooded sites.

Muscari

Spring gardens always look better when they include muscari. These cute little cobalt blue flowers complement every other color in the rainbow and at just 6 to 8” tall, it’s easy to find ways to add them to any garden or landscaped area.

Muscari are commonly known as grape hyacinths, which perfectly describes their flowers: tight clusters of fat little bells with a grape juice fragrance. Muscari bloom in mid-spring, at the same time as tulips.

Primula vulgaris

Primula vulgaris ‘Oakleaf Yellow Picotee’ is a very hardy primrose with unusual, oak leaf-shaped foliage. Displays an upright clump of bright yellow flowers with orange-red edges in early spring.

Prefers the cool weather season. Easy to grow in any well-drained soil with the occasional feeding. Excellent for borders, cut flowers and containers.

Hardy Perennial Pink Champagne

These flowers have elegant pale pink blooms with white centres that look like a cluster of small rosettes. Perfect for your spring borders, planters, alpine and woodland gardens. You can grow them in partial shade or sun, as formal planting or dotted through borders underneath shrubs and trees. You can plant them to form clumps of evergreen foliage that can be divided to give more plants, though it is a good idea to divide clumps every couple of years in early autumn.

 

Grow on either a bright windowsill or a greenhouse for 3-4 weeks before potting up into containers or into flower beds. Primroses enjoy moist, well-drained soil. Established plants can be planted out anytime unless the soil is waterlogged or frozen.
