Standard Bedding Flower Plants

Bedding plants are perfect for creating lots of vibrant colour with the minimum of effort. At Mr Fothergill's, we have a range of easy-to-grow bedding flower plants to help you bring some life and variety to your garden.

Hugely versatile and quick to flower, our standard bedding plants are perfect for beds, borders, hanging baskets, pots, and window boxes. We have a variety of half-hardy perennials and annuals to choose from for a spectacular summer-long show.

Our well-rooted plug plants measure up to 6cm (2.4in) in height and are supplied in packs of 40, making them easy to manage and transplant. From delicate petunias and begonias to striking zinnia plants, we have something for every gardener.

How to Grow Bedding Flower Plants

Whether you’re short on time or have missed the sowing window, there’s no need to start your own flowers from seed. With our established bedding plants, you can skip the germination stage and simply watch them grow and bloom.


When your standard plugs arrive, pot them into trays or pots filled with good-quality compost. Keep the potted plants in a warm and light location, such as a sunny windowsill or greenhouse. Once the plants are established and the risk of frost has passed, transplant them into your garden beds, borders, hanging baskets or containers.


Water regularly and feed with a balanced fertiliser to keep your plants healthy and blooming all summer long.

Choose from all of the classic standard bedding flower plants like lobelias, marigolds, and lots more.
