We all know that plants are dynamic, living things, and because we understand so much about our own plants (we carry out trials around the world) we appreciate the subtle differences regarding their growth and habit.

Which is why it’s worthwhile visiting the section of our site which gives you local information – which plants are available; when it’s best to plant, prune and feed them; tips and so on. It’s all here to help you enjoy them more.

Selected customer comment

"Volcano perennial phlox have a high natural tolerance of the powdery mildew that plagues most other phlox. Volcano Phlox 'Ruby'. Smashing color, fragrance and early summer to fall bloom, it doesn't get any better than this. And the best news is the Volcano phlox paniculata series is mildew resistant. I've grown them for two years and they have been disease-free. The plants remain a tidy compact 24 inches high and don't require staking. With six colors to choose from, there is one for every garden."
