Perennial Collection

Description

Whether planting a whole new garden from scratch, or updating an existing one, perennials are amongst the most important plant. Returning year after year, they are a perfect foundation and will provide structure to beds and borders, putting on a spectacular show. What's more, bees, butterflies and a whole host of other insects will enjoy them as much as you will.
This collection of wonderful plants has been expertly chosen to give a wide selection of sizes, colours and textures so that you can plant a fabulous perennial border knowing that it will bring you vibrant colour for years to come.
All you have to do is plant them about 60 cm (2 ft) apart, with taller plants towards the back, and let them do their thing. They will gradually merge together and they'll get bigger and better every year. They're easy to look after too, just deadhead them regularly to keep fresh flowers coming, and cut them back in autumn.
