Description

Striking Colour, Tough Evergreen Foliage And Easy Going Plants That Light Up Sunny Spaces For Months.

This Rock Rose Collection brings together three outstanding Helianthemum varieties in rich deep pink, glowing yellow and soft cream. From late spring into summer, these low, spreading shrubs throw up a cheerful succession of open blooms above evergreen foliage, creating a carpet of colour that looks right at home in borders, rockeries, gravel gardens and along sunny edges.

These are tough, reliable little shrubs that earn their keep year after year. Once established, Rock Roses cope well with dry conditions, thrive in full sun and need very little fuss, so are a good choice for busy gardeners or beginners.

'Ben Hope' produces many deep-pink blooms, each with a cute yellow centre, while 'Golden Queen' stays true to the name with yellow saucer flowers and subtle orange markings. Finally, 'The Bride' is an award-winning variety, as a holder of the RHS Award of Garden Merit, with a summer show of creamy flowers with a yellow eye.

Expect compact plants around 20 to 30cm tall with a broad, spreading habit, ideal for weaving between stones, spilling gently over edges, or filling patio pots.

Supplied as a set of three established plants in 9cm pots, including one of each variety named, ready to plant.

Top Tips
The abundantly produced flowers last for just a day, but are constantly replaced over a long period. Pinch faded blooms off will encourage continuous flowering.
Care Information
  • Rock roses grow best in moderately fertile soil in full sun.
  • Helianthemums dislike wet ground, particularly during winter, so improve heavy soil by adding coarse grit or sharp sand before planting.
  • Feed and water regularly throughout the growing season while young plants become established.
  • Drought tolerant when established, rock roses require little maintenance.
  • After flowering, prune back to within 3cm of the previous year's growth.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
