How to choose the best garden ready plants

Garden ready plants can transform your outside space in just a few hours! When choosing the best plants for your displays consider colour, scent, height, texture or a mixture of everything. For more specific tips read our questions and answers below:

Which garden ready plants are best for colour?

With brilliant scarlet blooms above neat, compact plants, Salvia splendens 'Blaze of Fire' is one of our most popular and striking garden ready plants. Begonia 'Nonstop Citrus Mix' is another bright option if you like zingy citrus colours. And for colourful foliage, you can’t go wrong with Coleus ‘Wizard Mix’.

Which garden ready plants are drought tolerant?

Gazania ‘Tiger Stripes Mixed’ is a good choice for hot, sunny spots and will tolerate drought well once established. Marigold ‘Zenith Mixed’ is another resilient choice that will cope well with dry soils. For ground cover, try Erigeron ‘Stallone’ a fast-growing perennial that smothers weeds and thrives on neglect in poor soil.

Which garden ready plants are best for hanging baskets?

If you’re planting up hanging baskets, go for trailing varieties like petunias, calibrachoa and lobelia. Begonia ‘Funky Pink’ is a long-flowering and weather-tolerant option that is happy in full sun or part-shade.
