Overview

With spikes of intense blood-red flowers that open over a long period from even darker buds, 'Blackfield' is a first rate perennial that not only looks great, but it will also help attract beneficial insects including bees. Even when not in bloom, the relatively large (to 10cm in length) oval to heart shaped foliage offers interest.

Specifications

  • Position: full sun or partial shade
  • Soil: moist but well drained or reliably moist soil

Care guide

Incorporate a generous amount of composted organic matter or well-rotted manure into the backfill during planting. Once established, lift and divide congested columps in spring or autumn. Cut back after it has finished flowering, or wait until late winter or early spring. Apply a mulch of composted organic matter every year.

How your order will arrive

Pots and Packaging
Our 9cm pots are given extra packaging to protect the plant. This extra packaging consists of a recyclable plastic blister pack which is then placed in a cardboard box for delivery.

Preparation
The nursery will ensure the plant is moist while it's waiting to be picked up. Our quality control team waters the plant before packing them where necessary to make sure that the plant is suitably watered for transport. Plants with long delicate stems are secured with canes to prevent damage.

Plant on Arrival
Typically plants are delivered ready to plant and will take some time to settle, grow and look more like the product image above.
