Perfect for pots

A vision of pure, bridal white, this allium brings delicate elegance and a fresh sparkle to the late spring garden. Often known as the Naples Garlic, 'Cowanii' is a select, more robust form that produces loose, airy umbels of pristine white, star-shaped flowers. Each floret features a subtle green eye, adding to its charm. Unlike the dense globes of other alliums, these blooms create a light, see-through effect, perfect for illuminating shady corners or weaving through bolder colours in a border. They are fantastic cut flowers, prized by florists for their long vase life and graceful appearance in bouquets. Plant them in generous sweeps to create a cloud of white that brightens the landscape and bridges the gap between spring bulbs and summer perennials.

A wonderfully versatile and beautiful tulip, 'Creme Upstar' is a Triumph tulip that undergoes a lovely colour transformation. The flowers emerge a soft, creamy yellow and gradually blush with shades of apricot and raspberry-pink as they mature, especially along the petal edges. Each stem is strong and sturdy, making it a reliable choice for both gardens and cutting.

A fascinating and quirky heirloom, 'Rip van Winkle' is a miniature Double daffodil that has been charming gardeners since the 19th century. This unique variety looks unlike any other daffodil, producing a spiky, star-like flower that is often compared to a dandelion or a thistle. The blooms are composed of multiple layers of narrow, pointed, pale greenish-yellow petals, creating a wonderfully wild and untamed appearance. Its short stature and very early bloom time make it a delightful character for the front of the border or a rock garden. 'Rip van Winkle' is perfect for those who appreciate the unusual and want to add a touch of historic, eccentric charm to their spring display.

A truly delightful and deservedly popular Jonquilla daffodil, 'Pipit' is celebrated for its delicate beauty, sweet fragrance, and unusual colour change. Each stem produces between two and four dainty flowers. The blooms open with both the outer petals and the central cup in a lovely soft, lemon-yellow. As the flowers mature, the cup magically fades to a beautiful creamy-white, creating a stunning two-tone effect, with some flowers on the same plant showing different stages of this transition. It is an excellent perennialiser and holds the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit for its reliability and outstanding charm. It's a must-have for any gardener who loves fragrant, elegant, and interesting flowers.

An exceptionally delicate and ethereal Grape Hyacinth, 'Valerie Finnis' is prized for its very pale colouring. The conical flower spikes are a beautiful shade of icy, sky-blue, so pale that they appear almost white from a distance, with the tiny bells at the top of the spike often being pure white. This creates a subtle, two-tone effect that is wonderfully soft and gentle. It has a light fragrance and is perfect for creating a serene, cool-toned spring display. It contrasts beautifully with darker blue Muscari or brightly coloured tulips and daffodils. It's an excellent choice for naturalising, forming a shimmering, low-growing carpet of colour in mid-spring.

A truly stunning tricolour masterpiece, Muscari armeniacum 'Nature's Beauty' showcases a breathtakingly beautiful gradient of colour within every single flower spike, creating a sophisticated, multi-toned effect from just one bulb. Each bloom begins with a rich, deep cobalt blue at its base, which seamlessly transitions into a paler, sky-blue shade in the middle, and finally culminates in a fluffy, pure white cap. This remarkable medley of shades gives the impression of a meticulously curated designer mix, providing incredible depth and visual interest. It is a robust and fragrant variety that is perfect for creating a dramatic and elegant statement in borders, containers, or window boxes. The complex colouring pairs exquisitely with both pure white daffodils and deep purple tulips, allowing it to bridge different colour palettes with ease. Its strong stems and long-lasting nature also make it a superb cut flower for delicate spring arrangements, bringing its unique beauty indoors. It is a real showstopper.

A miniature daffodil of immense charm and elegance, 'Segovia' is a delightful Small-Cupped variety that is perfect for smaller spaces. The exquisite flowers feature a perianth of broad, overlapping, snow-white petals that are beautifully proportioned. At the centre sits a small, neatly flattened, disc-like cup of a brilliant, zesty, lemon-yellow. This crisp, high-contrast colour combination is both refreshing and eye-catching. This RHS Award-winning variety has a compact, sturdy habit, making it an ideal choice for rock gardens, gravel gardens, containers, and the very front of the border, where its jewel-like beauty can be admired up close.

Welcome a flurry of early spring cheer with Puschkinia libanotica, the exquisite Russian Snowdrop or Striped Squill. These charming bulbs produce clusters of star-shaped, ice-white flowers, each petal delicately painted with a fine, porcelain-blue stripe. Holding the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit, you can be sure of their reliable performance. They are perfect for creating shimmering carpets of colour at the front of borders, in rockeries, or naturalised in lawns under deciduous trees. Plant them in generous drifts alongside early crocuses or winter aconites for a breathtaking spring awakening. Easy to grow and loved by early pollinators!

Hyacinth ‘Blue Jacket’ brings a bold splash of rich blue to the spring garden, with sturdy flower spikes packed tightly with starry florets. The blooms are a deep, cobalt blue with slightly paler centres, creating a lovely shimmer of colour that shows up beautifully on dull spring days. Flowering in early to mid spring, these compact hyacinths reach around 20–25cm, making them ideal for the front of borders, edging paths or tucking into small spaces where their intense colour can really shine.

The fragrance is one of the great joys of Hyacinth ‘Blue Jacket’ – a strong, classic hyacinth perfume that’s perfect for planting near doorways, along paths or in patio containers where you’ll pass close by. They are excellent in pots and window boxes, and also work well as indoor bulbs if potted up and brought into a cool, bright spot. The sturdy stems make them suitable for cutting too, so you can enjoy a few in small jugs or vases indoors. Left in well-drained soil, they will often reflower for several years, gradually naturalising into cheerful clumps of blue each spring.

Amaryllis ‘Apple Blossom’ brings soft, romantic colour indoors through the darkest months, with large, trumpet-shaped blooms in gentle shades of white brushed with blush pink. Each sturdy flower stem carries several impressive blooms, creating a striking focal point on a windowsill, side table or mantelpiece when little else is in flower.

Reaching around 45–60cm in height, this elegant amaryllis has an upright habit that makes it ideal for pots and containers indoors, where you can enjoy the flowers at eye level.

Amaryllis 'Mont Blanc' is a beautifully elegant variety, prized for its large, pure white blooms and striking indoor presence. Each sturdy stem carries multiple trumpet-shaped flowers, with broad, overlapping petals that open to a crisp, luminous white. The clean, simple colour makes it a versatile choice that suits both traditional and contemporary interiors, adding a calm, sophisticated focal point to a windowsill, side table or festive display.

This variety is ideal for brightening the darkest months of the year. Planted indoors in autumn or early winter, ‘Mont Blanc’ typically comes into flower from late December through to early spring, depending on planting time and room temperature. The tall, architectural stems and bold flowers make it an excellent feature in the living room, hallway or dining area, and it pairs beautifully with greenery, candles and simple glass or ceramic pots.

Amaryllis are easy to grow and rewarding, even for beginner gardeners. Give the bulb a snug-fitting pot, use a free-draining compost, and place it in a bright, warm spot indoors. Water sparingly at first, then more regularly once the foliage and flower stems begin to develop. After flowering, the bulb can be grown on as a foliage plant to build strength for future seasons, making ‘Mont Blanc’ not just a stunning seasonal display, but a long-term addition to your indoor plant collection.
