The fun starts now: special varieties for the new garden season!

Winter is the ideal time to start thinking about new additions to your garden. Are you looking for something special? These special varieties certainly deserve a place on your wish list!

Itea Scentlove®

The fragrant white flower panicles in summer and the beautiful colourful leaves in autumn make the relatively unknown Itea Scentlove® an ideal garden plant. And what is really special: it also does very well in the shade. Perfect for brightening up that dark spot in your garden.

Callicarpa PearlGlam®

This beautiful plant brings colour to your garden all season long, from its unusual purple-green leaves in summer to the purple berries in autumn. Combine it with evergreen shrubs for a nice contrast in the winter months.

Hibiscus Sugar Tip

Hibiscus Sugar Tip should definitely be on your wish list for the next gardening season. Its variegated leaves with creamy white margins combined with the large pink double flowers are sure to create a wow factor in your garden. Even the buds of this Hibiscus stand out because of their red colour.

Surprising garden gems

Besides these special shrubs, Proven Winners® has more gems that should not be missing from your shortlist for the new planting season:

  • Spiraea Double Play® Blue Kazoo: the striking blue-green leaves contrast very nicely with the large white flowers in spring. In autumn, the leaves turn deep wine-red.
  • Buddleja Rocketstar®: a series of compact butterfly bushes with impressively large flowers that bees and butterflies love. Choose the Rocketstar® that suits you and be surprised by its rich blooms.
  • •    Hydrangea BellaRagazza®: another special series. These low-growing ‘Annabelle-type’ hydrangeas (Blanchetta, Limetta and Mauvette) have a lovely rounded habit and bloom from early summer into autumn. BellaRagazza® hydrangeas are ideal for pots, smaller gardens or balconies.

It is still cold outside, but inside it is great to start planning for the new garden season. These special varieties are guaranteed to create a beautiful garden with just that little extra!
