Overview

As the name suggests, this is a compact version of the cottage garden favourite. It shares all the sought after qualities of the original, and will produce lashings of flowers over an extended period from early summer. Initially the blooms are mainly white, but as they age, they turn pinker, and their eye develops a deeper reddish colouring. It is extremely undemanding and easy to grow, and its more diminutive stature makes it perfect for patio pots - or quickly filling gaps in a sunny border.

Care guide

Cut the stems back to within 30cm (12in) of ground level in spring, after all risk of severe frosts has passed. After pruning apply a generous 5-7cm mulch of well-rotted garden compost or manure round the base of the plant. In exposed areas shorten branches by up to one half in autumn to minimise the risk of wind damage.

How your order will arrive

Pots and Packaging
Larger pots (2L and above) are wrapped in waxed paper and then attached to a cardboard base so they stay stable in the box. The waxed paper prevents the compost from spilling out and gives the base some added protection from damp compost. For large numbers of plants, pallets may be used for shipping.

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.
