A kaleidoscope of colours to brighten summertime gardens.
We simply love the bright, bold colours in this specially selected mix! To get the most sensational display for sun-filled borders and garden beds, we combined glorious coneflowers in an assortment of hues with the striking blue sea holly. The resulting blend is lively and vibrant, perfect for jazzing up both fresh and dried arrangements. These varieties perennialize well, returning year after year. Removing spent flowers encourages repeat blooming.Echinacea + Eryngium alpinum
