Verbascum Sugar Plum Flower Plants feature dusky pink to purple flower spires rising from neat, well-branched rosettes of deep green foliage. These charming cottage garden favourites provide vertical interest and are ideal for herbaceous borders, containers, and informal or woodland planting. The spikes attract bees and butterflies, adding life and colour to your garden.

Easy to grow and tolerant of a variety of soils, these versatile plants thrive in well-drained soil in full sun. Perfect for borders, large pots, or containers, they will perform reliably year after year.

Young Plants

Grown in individual large plug cells measuring up to 12cm (4.8in) in height, these plants are well-rooted and, where necessary, supplied with the central stem pinched to encourage strong, bushy growth. On arrival, simply pot them into 6 or 7cm pots, or, if you have space, plant directly into baskets and containers. Keep them somewhere warm and bright until established. A full growing guide is included to help you achieve the very best results. Plants will arrive ready for immediate potting on or planting, with heights ranging from 6–12cm from plug base to plant tip.
