• What are bedding plants?

  Bedding plants are fast-growing, temporary plants that are usually planted in flower beds, borders and hanging baskets. They are used by gardeners to create seasonal displays of colourful flowers. Bedding plants tend to be annuals, biennials or perennials.

  Some bedding plants are better suited to planting at different times of the year. In our range you’ll find a variety of spring and summer bedding plants, as well as winter bedding plants.

• Do bedding plants come back every year?

  It depends on the type of bedding plant you choose. Annual bedding plants usually flower only once a year, before dying. This type of bedding plant is great if you like to regularly change the plants in your garden.

  Biennial plants, on the other hand, have a two year life cycle. The first year is when the plan will grow its roots, stems and leaves. In the second year, the plant will flower before dying after the season. If you do wish to plant biennial bedding plants, many gardeners will plant in cycles, so there’s constantly a plant in bloom while others are in its first year.

  For bedding plants that bloom year after year, choose perennial bedding plants. These will flower every year and will usually grow larger. Most will die back over the winter before returning the following year. For all year round blooms, choose evergreen perennials.
