FIREWORK FLOWERS

Remember, remember the 5th of November and flowers that make your eyes pop!

Who says fireworks are just for bonfire night? Make sure your garden crackles with excitement all year round with our selection of our favourite sparklers, catherine wheels and rockets of the plant world…

This Monarda Mahogany is an explosion of scarlet. Buy it from http://www.specialperennials.com

Rudbeckia ‘Little Gold Star’ from Hardy’s Cottage Garden Plants is like a living catherine wheel.

This beautifully coloured Hedychium x moorei ‘Tara’ (also known as a ginger lily) is one of the hardiest around. Buy it from Edulis.

This delicate thalictrum urbaini from Crûg Farm Plants only reaches 15 cm high, but that doesn’t lessen the impact it brings to a shady spot.

The colours in this hepatica ‘Forest Purple’ positively fizz with energy…and they’re not a million miles away from our GROW London logo either! Buy the plant at Crocus.

If this fireball lily (scadoxus multiflorus) isn’t a sparkler made floral, we don’t know what is! Find it at Van Meuwen.
