Perennials To Plant Now

IF space is tight, a two-week flush of flowers simply won’t cut it. In the small garden plants have to work hard to earn their place, blooming reliably for several weeks – even months. Of course, a continuous summer show is provided by bedding plants like lobelia and tender pot plants like pelargoniums, but there are plenty of herbaceous perennials that can also fulfil that function in the border.

Now is the time to get many of these in the ground. Planted in autumn, their roots will establish during the colder months, allowing them to bloom madly come summer. So when purchasing perennials over the next few weeks, opt for the ones that deliver the best value for money via impressive flower power.
