Tell Me More…
Favourites of the spring, summer and autumn garden for their spreading habit, vibrant colour and longevity of flowers. Eternal Osteospermum Collection offers an intensity of colour which is drawn from the cooler end of the spectrum and looks sensational alongside blues and purples for a deeper intensity. For a hotter, more sizzling summery collaboration – choose yellows, red and oranges as companions to your osteospermum. Either way, Eternal Osteospermum Collection will happily thrive in a pot, a border or a gravel garden for weeks of vibrancy. Collection comprises: ‘Sennen Sunrise’ H&S: 25cm; ‘Tresco Purple’ H: 40cm S: 90cm; and ‘Snow Pixie’ H: 40cm S: 90cm. Plants in the Eternal Osteospermum Collection are drought tolerant once a good root structure has established itself. They are half-hardy perennials which are frequently treated as annual bedding and, if not, will need additional winter protection from frost when temperatures dip below -5C. Plants prefer a site which benefits from moist, well-drained soil in full sun.
