Description

These gorgeous rock roses are perfect for filling those pesky gaps in beds and borders thanks to their masses of gorgeous blooms. Easy to grow, these hardy and drought tolerant plants will brighten up the garden with yellow, orange, and rose-pink blooms.

Each flower is set against a backdrop of semi-evergreen, silvery foliage and the nectar rich flowers are magnets for beneficial pollinators, such as bees. Perfect as a groundcover plant and areas such as rockeries, gravel areas or hot and dry borders.

Supplied as a set of six plug plants, ready to grow on before planting out, including two each of Helianthemum 'Ben Fhada', 'Ben Ledi', and 'Ben Mohr'.

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 Information
  • 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 of the previous year's growth.
