Product description
Senetti Violet is prized for its long flowering period, holding onto its daisy-like blooms from early March to late May. The large, vibrant purple flowers bloom in abundance over ovate glossy green foliage, providing striking early colour in the garden.
Senetti Violet grows well in garden beds and borders but is also a great choice for container gardening and can even be grown as an indoor plant. Senetti Violet thrives in most soil types, provided the soil is kept moist but well-drained. It prefers a sheltered spot in full sun or partial shade and needs additional frost protection during the colder months.
Please Note: When purchasing plants, please consider that each live item is unique and may therefore differ from the images shown, which are for illustration purposes only. The plant will be supplied in a growers pot. Depending on season, some plants may be pruned back to encourage growth and deciduous plants may arrive without leaves.
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.
