Spring Flowering

An Early Bloomer

Spring flowering herbaceous perennials make a popular choice as they are the surest sign that the milder weather is approaching. This type of perennial provides a splash of a beautiful colour, before other plants have started to leaf after a long winter. The pansy, for example, prefers blooming in cool spring weather making them perfect for beds, containers and window boxes.

The celandine poppy is one of the first flowers to bloom in spring, and looks like a delicate wildflower when it blooms,  just like hyacinths who flourish lusciously from sturdy stalks for a stunning seasonal display.
