Overview

A chance discovery by Rosy Hardy in 2015 and recently introduced. Ruffled semi-double 'Frilly Knickers' is a stunning sport of 'Dreaming Swan'. The large purple buds of this clump-forming perennial open to a mass of white petals with delicate hints of lilac and a boss of golden-yellow stamens. Well suited to the small garden with a long flowering season and perfect for pots!

Care guide

Incorporate plenty of well-rotted compost or manure and add some mycorrhizal fungi (Rootgrow) when planting. Cut back the stalks after the flowers have faded. Remove any degraded foliage in March and mulch with organic matter. Once established, lift and divide congested clumps in early spring.

How your order will arrive

Pots and Packaging
Larger pots (2L and above) are wrapped in waxed paper and then attached to a cardboard base so they stay stable in the box. The waxed paper prevents the compost from spilling out and gives the base some added protection from damp compost. For large numbers of plants, pallets may be used for shipping.

Preparation
The nursery will ensure the plant is moist while it's waiting to be picked up. Our quality control team waters the plant before packing them where necessary to make sure that the plant is suitably watered for transport. Plants with long delicate stems are secured with canes to prevent damage.

Plant on Arrival
Typically plants are delivered ready to plant and will take some time to settle, grow and look more like the product image above.
