Bedding & seasonal plants
Bedding plants add instant, fast growing colour for the current season. Very versatile, they can be used to fill gaps in flower beds and borders, and for containers such as hanging baskets or window boxes^. Many grow and flower within one season, and are generally then replaced with different coloured plants for the next season. They are also known as "annuals" as they don't survive winter's frosts to return the next year. Most flower, some are scented while others are valued for their colourful, textured foliage. Note: plants that flower every year (perennials and shrubs) are listed in a separate group.
