Care Instructions for Midnight Bloom Hanging Basket Plant Collection:
Ideal Planting Location:
Grow the plug plants on in a bright, sheltered location indoors or in a greenhouse with well-drained soil. Once established, plant them outdoors in full sun or partial shade.
Potting and Growing On:
Upon arrival, pot the plug plants into small individual pots with high-quality compost. Keep them in a sheltered, bright area, watering regularly to encourage root development.
Transplanting to Final Position:
Once the plants are well-rooted and weather permits, transplant them into a 12-inch hanging basket, spacing them evenly to create a full, layered effect.
Watering Tips:
Water thoroughly after transplanting and maintain even moisture in the soil. Be careful not to overwater, especially in containers, ensuring good drainage to avoid waterlogging.
Feeding Schedule:
Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 2-3 weeks during the growing season to promote vigorous growth and an abundance of blooms.
Deadheading and Maintenance:
Regularly remove spent blooms to encourage continuous flowering and maintain a tidy appearance throughout the season.

Size guide - Pack of 5 Large Plug Plants
Pot Ready, Large, Healthy plants individually rooted in large plugs of compost. Ideal for planting into baskets, containers or small areas in the garden. Best results achieved if grown on for a short while in 9cm/10cm pots prior to planting out if planting straight into garden borders. Tender varieties will need protecting from frost. Compost volume around 4-5cm deep x 3-4cm square. Foliage height 5cm-12cm (depending on variety). Full growing instructions are provided.
Using a good quality multi-purpose compost, pot up your plugs into 10cm pots. Once your plug plants have been potted on and labelled, water them in well and grow on for around 5-6 weeks. Water once the compost starts to dry out but remember.
If preferred you can pot on the plugs into hanging baskets, flower bags or pots. Add a slow release plant food like Miracle-Gro Slow Release All Purpose Plant Food to your compost which will give extra nutrients for strong and healthy plant growth.
Keep plants frost free until mid/late May and then harden off before being placed in their final positions when the risk of frost has passed in your area.
Water as necessary giving a liquid feed such as Neudorff Organic Plant Feed as instructed throughout the growing season.
***For packs of 40 plug plants gently remove the small plugs from the tray by pushing up from the bottom using a pencil.
