Product Description
Gerberas are incredibly popular flowers and understandably common in bouquets. Perfectly formed blooms on long, straight stems in wonderfully bright colours, they’re now available as herbaceous perennials.
The Garvinea series are the world’s first hardy Gerberas and Garvinea ‘Majestic’ has been bred to produce spectacular double flowers in three gorgeous colours, each one 9cm (3½in) across. You can now enjoy these amazing flowers in your own garden from May to October each year, an incredibly long flowering season that guarantees you a continuous supply of beautiful cut flowers!
These Gerbers love to grow in full sun or partial shade and are hardy down to -8°C, so they’ll get through a British winter, dying back underground before returning bigger, better and with even more flowers the following spring, and their immaculate looking flowers are incredibly prolific. Happy in flower borders and they look particularly good planted in groups in large pots.
Supplied as 3 established plants in 7cm pots, ready to plant, reaching a height of 40cm (16in) and spread of 30cm (1ft), including:
Garvinea ‘Majestic Yellow’ – bright lemon yellow with a hint of gold at the centre.
Garvinea ‘Majestic Pink’ – lovely soft pink, darker in the centre.
Garvinea ‘Majestic Burgundy’ – rich burgundy petals with white tips.
What Is Supplied
Plant Information
Top Tips
- Remove faded flowers from the base of the stems to encourge more.
Care Guide
- Garvineas prefer fertile, well-drained, moist soil that has been dug deeply.
- Individually knock out each plant from its container. Look at the roots – if they are circling around the compost, it is best to tease them out. To do this, push your fingers into the rootball along the bottom edge and pull. Do this in a couple of places. This should encourage the roots to spread into the surrounding soil.
- Next use a trowel or spade to create a hole just deep and wide enough to set in the rootball.
- When planting set the crowns slightly above the soil level then firm back around the soil, using your hand for small clumps and your heel on larger areas.
- Water in well to settle the soil and prevent drying out.
