Description

Soft, muted, vintage coloured flowers with beautiful, airy texture from the grass. This is a favourite trio from the cutting garden and the more you pick to bring inside, the more these flower, with even ‘Sparkling Fountain’ truly cut-and-come-again.

This collection contains a seed mix of:
  • Panicum capillare 'Sparkling Fountain'
  • Zinnia elegans 'Queeny Lime Red'
  • Phlox drummondii 'Crème Brûlée'

Care Tips

Water once a week and stake plants individually. Tidy up any dead or dying leaves and ensure good air circulation to avoid botrytis. Picking or deadheading is necessary to prolong blooming and encourage branching.
