Irish Grown Hostas, Ferns, Ornamental Grasses & Lavender
John Flanagan, SAP
These easy-care plants can grow in a border or a pot, preferably in a shaded area. The Hostas will provide a bright splash of colour from early spring to autumn, with summer flowers as a bonus. The feathery light green foliage of the Ferns provide a brilliant contrast. Both should be well watered after planting and during summer. Remove old foliage in early spring and wait for new shoots to appear. Our Ornamental Grasses and Lavender can be planted in beds or in pots. The English Lavender will provide flowers and brilliant scent until the first frost while the grasses will give year-round colour. They are all lowmaintenance and simply need to be trimmed back after flowering to encourage fresh growth the following spring.
