Outdoor Perennials
Many gardeners grow outdoor plants in pots as they provide colour throughout the year and can be moved around into different spots when they are at their best. Tender potted plants can be moved inside or into greenhouses to protect them from frosty conditions Few gardeners think to use hardy perennials, and this collection will provide a number of aesthetically pleasing herbaceous perennials and hardy geraniums that don’t mind staying in pots. They have been selected for colour and will look their best when planted in groups within a large pot. Featured plants run approximately from tallest (top left hand corner) to shortest (bottom right hand corner). Ideally, you should plant 4 different plants per large pot, but they can live separately if needed. This collection of plants is UK delivered.
