How to grow

Plant in any well-drained soil in a sheltered, sunny position. Dig plenty of well-rotted manure or compost into the planting hole and drive in a stake before planting (staking afterwards can damage the root ball). Plant at the original soil level, firm in, tie to the stake and water well. Keep weeds and grass clear within 30cm of the base, and mulch in spring while the ground is moist, keeping mulch away from the stem.

Plant height and spread are seasonal, so plants are listed by pot size. The size of the plant delivered will vary with the season and images are an indication only.
