Plant description

These two will form quick and easy groundcover in partially shaded spots. Equally good for front of border positions, lining a woodland path, or underplanting trees and shrubs.

What's included:

In this collection you will receive three of each of the following plants. They are all supplied in a 9cm nursery pot.

  • Tiarella 'Spring Symphony' (PBR): Attractive, deeply lobed leaves with a small dark blotch in the centre, make a great carpet of foliage throughout the summer. In late spring, slender stems rise up and hold spikes of tiny star-shaped, blush white flowers. This is a brilliant plant for covering the ground in a shady spot - plant it in large numbers for best effect. Grows to 30cm.

  • Brunnera macrophylla 'Jack Frost' (PBR): In early spring, large, mid-green, heart-shaped leaves that look as though they have been dusted with silver appear, followed by tall sprays of tiny, bright blue, forget-me-not-like flowers. For the best variegation, a sheltered, shady site is essential. Although it prefers moist conditions, brunnera will tolerate dry soil once established, and will spread to form a large clump. Grows to 40cm.

    Planting tips:

    Prepare the bed well by digging in lots of composted organic matter before you plant. For best results it is essential that the plants are kept well watered for the first year, particularly during warmer weather.

    Please note:

    The plants in this collection will die right back in autumn, then fresh new growth will appear again in spring.
