Aubrieta Purple Cascade (Cascade Series) | Approx 400 Seeds

A very free-flowering variety. Position: full sun Soil: moderately fertile, well-drained, preferably neutral or alkaline soil Rate of growth: average to fast-growing Flowering period: March to May Hardiness: fully hardy Producing masses of rich purple flowers in spring, this aubrieta looks fab when allowed to tumble over the edge of a raised bed or provide ambling ground cover through an alpine bed. Flourishing in moderately fertile, well-drained, neutral or alkaline soil, this is an especially free-flowering variety. Garden care: In a cold frame or unheated greenhouse, surface sow the seeds onto trays filled with good quality compost and water well. When the seedlings are large enough to handle, thin out and pot on individually. Once well established, harden off and plant them out in a sunny spot, allowing 30cm between each. Cutting the plants back hard after they have finished flowering will help keep them bushy – and may encourage a second flush of flowers. Sow: February-June or September-October Flowering: March-May Approximate quantity: 400 seeds.
