Plant description
The beauty of these plants (apart from the pretty bi-coloured flowers) is their branching habit, which means that they cover the ground really well without stretching. This enables them to produce more flowers, so they put on a great display off and on throughout autumn, winter and spring.
Grown in individual plug cells, each plant measures about 4 - 6cm tall (from the base of the root to the top of the plant). They are ideal for keen gardeners who have a greenhouse where the plants can be grown on until they are ready for planting out in the garden.

After the last frost date, plant up containers with tender flowering bedding and reliable foliage plants. Line terracotta pots with polythene, taking care not to cover the planting holes, to reduce water loss through the porous sides of the pot.
