Before you plant

Will every variety flower at exactly the same time?
No. The design is intended to change naturally through the season. Some varieties overlap, while others take over as earlier flowers fade.
Can I swap colours or varieties?
This is a fixed garden design, so substitutions and colour swaps are not offered. The balance depends on the named varieties shown above.
Will the plants look like the photographs when they arrive?
The images show the mature flowering effect. Bulbs, corms and bare roots are supplied dormant and will not look like mature plants on arrival.
