Harmonious composition. Planted them as soon as they arrived, the 3 varieties have taken well and are enhancing my balcony planters. I highly recommend.

More information

Three perennial plants with evergreen foliage and graceful summer flowering brought together in a single pot, for a small colourful and decorative scene all year round. This composition combines a plant with abundant flowers, a variegated heuchera with foliage strongly veined in purple-grey on a lighter background, and a dwarf ivy with yellow, cream, and green variegated foliage. The whole should be repotted in a planter or trough that will decorate the balcony or terrace. This composition can also be planted directly in the ground, in full sun or partial shade, in a soil that is not too dry.

Description

The Autumn Breeze arrangement is decorative all year round and beautifully blooms in summer. It brings three colourful, hardy, and low-maintenance perennial plants together in the same pot, easy to grow in open ground or pots. The textures and colours of the foliage harmoniously combine, with the composition at its peak in summer, crowned with the delicate spikes of catmint and coral bells. Already composed and ready to plant, this trio allows you to dress up your terrace or garden for an immediate and lasting, tasteful effect.

 

The Autumn Breeze collection consists of:

- 1 x Nepeta mussini: This perennial forms a bushy, low and branched plant, 30 cm (12in) tall, with small oval, silver-green aromatic leaves. For four months throughout the summer, it transforms into a bunch of blue-violet nectar-rich flowers. It is a ground cover plant which can be evergreen, depending on the region.

- 1 x Heuchera or coral bells with leaves strongly veined in purple-grey on a lighter background. This perennial has extremely light floral spikes adorned with tiny white-pink bells in summer. The foliage more or less persists in winter.

- 1 x Hedera: a compact variety that produces long creeping stems. Its green triangular and lobed leaves are randomly bordered with yellow and spotted with cream-white and persist in winter.

 

Cultivated in the same pot, these perennial plants get along well, each finding its place without suffocating the others. They should be repotted in a larger, wider container to showcase them on the balcony or terrace. This composition can also be planted in open ground, in the sun or partial shade, in well-drained, rich, and moist soil.

Planting and care

Plant your Autumn Breeze composition in spring or early autumn, in a large container to allow the plants to reach their full potential. Use rich and light soil and water regularly. Apply universal fertilizer in spring. Choose a sunny or semi-shaded exposure. The created pot can spend the winter outside, as all the plants are hardy. 

In the ground: if your soil is heavy, mix in some compost and sand and place your composition so that the top of the root ball is covered with 2-3 cm (1in) of soil. The addition of a base fertilizer will nourish your plants during the rooting period without risk of burning. Firm the soil and water generously to eliminate air pockets. If the weather is dry, you will need to water regularly for a few weeks to aid establishment, then water if it is very dry. We recommend pruning dry leaves and stems in February-March.
