3x Creeping Jenny Lysimachia Nummularia - 9cm Pots
Creeping Jenny Lysimachia Nummularia - 3x 9cm Pots
Lysimachia Nummularia is a very vigorous perennial which is perfect for forming a creeping cover around pond margins and concealing the edges of pond liners. It has lovely cup-shaped, bright yellow flowers which bloom in abundance throughout the summer. Its shiny golden green foliage produces small, rounded leaves with wavy edges which grow out of their thin, trailing stems. Their orbicular leaves are smooth and slightly shiny. Lysimachia Nummularia is an evergreen plant, which means that the foliage of the plant persists and remains green throughout the year.

Advice on hot and droopy plants
If your plants are looking a little wilted right now, don’t worry! Plants like to be filled with water to keep their structure, and when it’s hot that water evaporates.
Just give them an off-schedule watering and they’ll be right as rain in no time! Be careful not to flood them - plants don’t like extremes.
