    One of the most popular varieties of pink, with flowers that look like raspberry ripple ice cream. 'Gran's Favourite' is a 'laced' variety, which means the flowers are made up of two colours - with a contrasting centre and edge to the petals. This one has ruffled white petals with a splotch of deep purple-red in the centre and edge. It is sturdy and compact, and is best planted towards the front of a perennial border or rock garden, or in a pot.

  • Garden care: Incorporate lots of well-rotted manure or garden compost into the planting hole. Apply a balanced fertiliser in spring and deadhead to prolong flowering
