Plant Information
Top Tips
The abundantly produced flowers last for just a day, but are constantly replaced over a long period. Pinch faded blooms off will encourage continuous flowering.
Care Guide
- Pot up your rock rose plugs on receipt and and grow them on until large enough to plant outdoors.
- Harden off over 7 to 10 days before planting into their final positions.
- Rock roses grow best in moderately fertile soil in full sun.
- Helianthemums dislike wet ground, particularly during winter, so improve heavy soil by adding coarse grit or sharp sand before planting.
- Feed and water regularly throughout the growing season while young plants become established.
- Drought tolerant when established, rock roses require little maintenance.
- After flowering, prune back to within 3cm (1in) of the previous year's growth.

The reason for only three stars was because some were in poor condition. Have had many from you in the past and not had a problem..
