Plant description

Once established, these plants will form a dense carpet that will help stop weeds taking hold.

What's included:

In this collection you will receive one of each of the following plants. They are all supplied in a 9cm nursery pot.

  • Geranium 'Rozanne': Large (up to 5cm across), saucer-shaped, violet-blue flowers, each with a white eye, appear throughout the summer above the mounds of slightly-marbled, deep green foliage. Perfect for underplanting roses, or filling a few gaps in the front of a border, it copes well in full sun or partial shade. Grows to 60cm.

  • Campanula portenschlagiana: Spreading mounds of deep purple, funnel-shaped flowers smother the evergreen leaves from midsummer. These low-growing Dalmatian bellflowers look wonderful cascading over a sunny, well-drained rock garden or raised bed, used as edging or tucked in between paving stones or a dry-stone wall. This campanula is very vigorous, so it's best planted away from smaller, less competitive plants. Grows to 15cm.

  • Vinca minor 'Atropurpurea': Pairs of dark green leaves develop along the long trailing stems, eventually creating a dense mat of rich green foliage that can be used to help keep weeds at bay. The 5-petalled flowers, which appear on long stalks, are a rich shade of plum-purple. Grows to 15cm.

  • Thymus serphyllum 'Pink Chintz': This mat-forming thyme produces a mass of clear pink flowers in summer. It's an ideal ground cover plant for a sunny border or rock garden. Useful for attracting bees and other beneficial pollinating insects into the garden, the aromatic grey-green leaves release a lovely scent whenever they are trodden on. Grows to 25cm.
