Value for every budget Aubrieta Florado Blue Blush Bicolor

Tell Me More…
Aubrieta ‘Florado Blue Blush Bicolour’ offers an exciting new alternative to the dense blocks of colour usually associated with this familiar favourite. Each flower is white with a tiny greenish-yellow eye as it first opens, a powdery sky blue then appearing on petal tips and deepening over time. All stages appear on the plant simultaneously, giving a delightful swirled-paint effect. Aubrieta is a hardy, evergreen perennial which quickly forms a neat, dense, ground-hugging mat, often seen cascading over walls, spreading over rock gardens, or spilling over the edges of containers. From April to May, a dense profusion of brightly coloured flowers gives it a starring role in the garden. Plant in a sunny spot in moist yet well-draining, neutral to alkaline soil. Aubrieta does not like to sit damp, so add extra drainage if necessary. Give a light trim each year after flowering, to maintain a neat, dense cushion and prevent the middle from becoming bare and woody. H: 10cm S: 50cm. Hardy to between -15 C and -20 C.
