Calochortus Mixed was £5.95 now £5.75
Sometimes referred to as Fairy Lanterns because of the shape and attractive shading of the brightly coloured and patterned blooms. The petal formation of the blooms is quite unusual in that the three inner petals are generally larger than the three outer petals – in most flowers it’s the other way round. Plant outdoors in light well-drained soil in full sun ideally at the foot of a south-facing wall. Alternatively so that you are able to inspect the extraordinary blooms at close quarters grow in pots in a cool greenhouse or conservatory. Plant 3in/8cm apart. Bulb Size: 4/+cm
Maris Peer Seed Potatoes (Second Early) was £6.45 now £5.95
This Second Early has firm white flesh which does not break up or discolour on cooking. Expect heavy yields of medium sized tubers which are good boiled. If harvested when small they are particularly good for making potato salads. It makes a really handsome plant with remarkable scented purple flowers – the perfect patio potato.
