Blue Barrel Planter
Out of stock
A really pretty selection of 6 or 7 (depending on their size) seasonal flowering plants presented in sturdy blue wooden barrel. Your lovely planter will arrived gift wrapped and with your own special message hand written in the card for you.
The exact selection of plants does vary a little week to week, but at the moment we are selecting from the following: osteospernum, dianthus, bacopa, cyclamen, polka dot, calibrachoa, nicotania, campanula and decorative ivy. Because we make these planters up fresh each week at the nursery the exact selection does vary but they are looking floral and colourful. Please do make a note below if you have any particular preferences on colours and we'll always do our best to follow this.

These instructions are sent with the plant gift
Your planter has been made up fresh at the nursery; please do not be alarmed if there is any loose soil, this can be gently firmed back in upon arrival.
Your planter is best kept either outside in a sheltered spot or in a cool room or porch.
The amount you need to water, will depend upon where you are keeping it and how often it rains. Try to keep the compost damp – not dry and not soggy. (Please be careful when watering your planter as these wooden barrels are not water tight – you may wish to place your planter on a plastic mat or tablecloth to protect your furniture if you are keeping your plant indoors.)
If the leaves or flowers start to droop, water thoroughly immediately and they should soon recover.
It is a good idea to keep pinching out the flowers as they fade to encourage the young buds and to avoid mildew. Once all the flowering plants are over the foliage plants will continue to grow, but if you like you can add more colour with new bedding plants in to make a fresh seasonal display.
