Growing at a glance…
Do not allow the ground to dry out in the summer and water regularly during the flowering period to help prolong the flowering. They are suitable for planting in all types of well drained garden soil. They work best once planted in a sunny or lightly shaded location. To plant them in the border, dig a hole in the border that’s big enough to house the entire root ball. Do this until the top of the soil from the module is just below the top of the pot. Fill around the modules with soil and firm them down gently. To plant them within a wall, find an opening and pack it halfway with soil. Then, take the module and pop it in the hole, making sure it's sturdy by packing soil around it. Water well.
