Supplied as strong plants ready for planting out, approximately 7 plants per pot (supplied in mixed colours only).
Available from APPROXIMATELY mid March 2021These were first grown by the late Eric Shirley in the 1940's at his home and allotment in Isleworth, Middlesex. Clearly these hold a great deal of nostalgia for us!
They are renowned for both their perfume and exhibition quality blooms; see (and smell) our trials here on the nursery every Summer.
Perfect for growing on trellis, arbours and arches, these really do make a fabulous show in any garden - and provide a 'constant' supply of flower for the home; in fact the more you pick them the more they will continue to flower.
Our blend is from 40 distinct named varieties in a grand mixture including varieties such as Air Warden, Andrea Robertson, Blackcurrant Mousse, Blue Danube, Bristol, Brook Hall, Charlie's Angel, Evening Glow, Firebrand, Flagship, Kelvedon Beauty, Mrs R. Bolton, Nanette Newman, Noel Sutton, Pluto, Red Ace, Red Arrow, R.A.F., Rosy Frills, Rouge Parfum, Shirley Pink, Southbourne, Swan Lake, White Frills and Winston Churchill.
