Greenwood recommends … Our summer bedding plants catalogue details the wide selection of varieties and pot sizes on offer. Here are some bedding plant families to create spectacular summer displays, as recommended by our nursery manager. Sunpatiens (Busy Lizzie) More robust than standard impatiens, with greater spread, these wonderful plants grow a profusion of flowers in a range of colours from brilliant lilacs and vivid magentas to blushing pinks and pure white. Lobularia (Sweet alyssum) For colourful coverage, the fragrant and delicate blooms of lobularia are hard to beat. Its dense mounds of low-growing blooms create carpets of intense colour. Canna The showy flowers and distinctive leaves of the Canna lily make a stunning addition to beds and borders, in wonderfully vibrant shades of red, orange, yellow and pink. Fuchsia The elegant drooping blooms of fuchsia create a beautiful chandelier effect in hanging baskets, and the pendent shaped flowers add contrast and interest to bedding displays. Greenwood can supply any bedding plant you require. See our full catalogue to see further details. 15
