Micropropagated Modules


  AGAPANTHUS

Sky 40cm

Tall, elegant flower spikes (up to 150cm) with pendulous sky-blue flowers. Deciduous narrow leaves.

  AGAPANTHUS NOTES: These are new varieties to us and are unlikely to flower much in the first year but are a bit different to the norm.
 

BERGENIA

Baby Doll 30cm

Very pretty clear pink flowers above neatly rounded green leaves.

 

Bressingham White 35cm

 

Pinkish flowers turn to clear white, rounded green leaves.

Evening Glow (Abenglut) 25cm

The rounded and fairly prostrate leaves are well coloured in this smaller than usual, tidy plant. The short flower stems carry small semi-double flowers of deep magenta.

 

Morning Blush (Morgenrote) 40cm

 

Fine green foliage with good deep pink flowers appearing early. This may suffer mild frost damage if the flower buds are caught but it will flower again in the early summer.

 

Winter Fairy Tale (Wintermarchen) 35cm

 

The handsome more upright foliage of this variety turns to deep carmine in winter/early spring. Strong, deep pink flower stems follow. Winter Fairy Tale is slightly later flowering than our other varieties.

  BERGENIA NOTES: A very high percentage of these modules will flower in their first spring, even in a 9cm pot. The main criteria for success is not to pot them into too large a pot.
  BRUNNERA

mac. Variegata 45cm

An attractive cream edged form of this shade loving plant. Pretty, tiny blue flowers appear in the Spring.

  BRUNNERA NOTES: For good foliage quality this plant definitely needs some shading. Far less reversion occurs in these micropropagated plants than in those more traditionally propagated.
  CAMPANULA

Hotlips 35cm

Large, silvery rose bells with very pretty freckled insides hang downwards above dark green foliage. This is a low growing, vigorous variety.

  CAMPANULA NOTES: Strong growing and quick to make a saleable plant. Should produce a 2 litre flowering pot within the year.
  DAHLIA

Clarion 90cm

This outstanding, new variety has stunning single yellow flowers held above contrasting dark bronze foliage.

Eye Candy 90cm

This outstanding, new variety has stunning single yellow and orange flowers held above contrasting bronzed foliage.

  GERANIUM

Mavis Simpson 35cm

Vigorous green foliage. Produces long stems carrying large numbers of clear pink flowers. Repeat flowers through the summer.

Orkney Pink 15cm

Small, pretty cerise pink flowers. Bronze tinged leaves.

  GERANIUM NOTES: Most varieties will grow rapidly over the summer making a lot of long untidy growth, after dying back over winter they will make attractive plants for spring and early summer sales. Some losses have occurred when the plants have been cut back too early.

Sum and Substance 85cm

 

Dramatic, large golden leaves. White flowers.

Wide Brim 45cm

Medium sized leaves with creamy gold edged variegation, lavender flowers.

  HOSTA NOTES: These Hostas are pretty tough plants. They overwinter well even when small. Although generally believed to require shade and cool damp conditions, we have found them easy to grow on in our standard peat/grit mix under net sided tunnels. High quality foliage is essential for good sales so we recommend giving cold protection prior to shoot emergence. Avoid overhead watering in bright sun which may cause damaging leaf scorch.
  KNIPHOFIA

Little Maid 50cm

Excellent dwarf variety with pale yellow flower spikes.

Strawberries and Cream 80-120cm (Royalty Paid)

A new variety with strawberry coloured flowers fading to cream at the base of the spike. Flowers from mid summer onwards. A very pretty variety.

  KNIPHOFIA NOTES: The Little Maid is not always easy to overwinter and grows best if it is kept on the dry side and as well ventilated as possible. It benefits from some frost protection. The Strawberries and Cream seems tougher.
  SCHIZOSTYLUS

Fenland Daybreak 45-60cm (Royalty Paid)

A new variety with pretty orange/ pink Autumn flowers

Pink Princess 45-60cm (Royalty Paid)

A new variety with stunning delicate pale pink Autumn flowers.

  SCHIZOSTYLUS NOTES: If planted by mid June, these plants will flower in their first Autumn in a pot no bigger than 10.5cm. Micropropagated Schizostylus are very bushy and will make a very substantial plant by the following Spring.
