Description

Some of the warmest bedding blooms for your summer garden. Outstanding trumpet-shaped flowers erupt with apricot orange petals, streaked and veined in vivid red. The rich summer shades of the flowers contrast so well against the green ovate leaves of the plants.

Great growers for patio pots, borders, or hanging baskets, with a semi-trailing habit. See free-flowering through summer and into October. This variety is adored by pollinators, such as butterflies, and other beneficial insects.

Plus, the beauty of ‘Apricot Shades Petite’ does not have to remain in the garden, as the blooms are great for cutting and including in fresh flower vase displays.

Supplied as a set of six plug plants, ready to grow on and plant out.

Top Tips
  • Deadhead when flowers fade to encourage more flowers.
  • Care Information
    • Unpack plugs immediately, and stand them in water for an hour. If you can’t do this, they can sit in Mini Greenhouses for a week if upright and not too wet.
    • Plugs may be slightly dry or yellow after being in a dark box in the post but they’ll quickly recover. Put them somewhere warm, light and airy such as a windowsill or greenhouse.
    • When potting on, handle plugs carefully. Pot on using our 9cm pots in Shuttle Trays, using good multi-purpose compost.
    • Give your plants a good water initially, then only when the top compost starts to dry. They don’t like to be left in standing water.
    • Plant approximately 20cm apart to allow them room to grow.
    • Feed using a high-potash feed such as Blooming Fast Superior Soluble Fertiliser for Flowers & Fruits, to encourage flowering.
