�Double Pink Bicolour� - Fully double blooms, magenta pink and highlighted in splashes of yellow
�Double Purple� - Amazing purple colour! Petals are a slightly lighter shade at the edge
�Double Yellow Improved� - Impressive yellow petals rarely look this good
�Double Pink� - Two rows of soft-pink petals, which are slightly darker at the centre
�Double Berry White� - A rich, berry-pink shade can be seen on the centre, with an outer ring of white-pink
'Double Blue Steel' - Ruffled daisy-like flowers in a rich purple, with white outer petals

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 approx. 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.
