Summertime treats to be proud of! This trio of flowering perennials each boast eye-catching colours. Featuring the adorable white ‘Snow Pixie’, ‘Sennen Sunrise’ with pale pink petals infused with white stripes and dark eyes, and the deep pink 'Tresco Purple’.

Each hardy and compact bloomer produces glossy green foliage, perfect for filling pots and borders, or edging garden paths.

Supplied as a set of six jumbo plugs, ready to pot up and grow on before planting out, including two each of the following varieties:

  • ‘Sennen Sunrise’ – Glossy and evergreen foliage becomes coated in daisy flowers with pale pink petals, dark veining, and flushes of white, through summer and into the start of autumn. Recommended by the RHS as a ‘Plant for Pollinators’. Growing to H25cm x W30cm.
  • 'Snow Pixie’ – Pure white petals form around a golden yellow eye, rising upright and proud from green foliage. Growing to H15cm x W90cm.
  • ‘Tresco Purple’ – Be amazed as pink daisy flowers open each morning to welcome the sun. A bold pink shade stretches across the ring of striped petals, around a darker, near purple eye in the centre. Growing to H40cm x W90cm.
Top Tips
Deadhead regularly to encourage even more blooms to emerge.
Care Information
  • Unpack plugs immediately and stand them in water for an hour.
  • If you can’t do this, they can sit in their mini greenhouse 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 approximately 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.
  • Remember that plants are frost tender and should be protected from frost at all times.
  • Best treated as an annual or alternatively grow in pots which you can move indoors in autumn.
Delivery Information

Our experienced team at the nursery will always carefully package and send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive once you receive and plant them.
