Product description
Burnet Salad is a delicate, flowering, perennial herb. Small leaflets form in a rosette-like shape, and clusters of fiery crimson flowers bloom throughout summer, through until autumn. When crushed, the green foliage emanates a light cucumber scent.
This Mediterranean native is excellent for flavouring sauces and vinegars, and the leaves are perfect for adding to salads. Burnet Salad will tolerate most soil types, as long as it is well-drained, and it will thrive best when planted in full sun.
Please Note: Images are for illustrative purposes only and designed to be a representation of the item(s) being sold. Depending on seasonality, deciduous plants may be supplied in their dormant state and without leaves. Plants may also be pruned back, lower than stated heights, to encourage new growth.

Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.
