Winter pansies are the main item in this range, and are produced in both packs and 9cm pots. Over the years we have gained a reputation for growing some of the best pansies available.
Our standard packs are all mixed colours, but can also be grown in separate colours to contract. Our pots, however, are produced in mixed and separate colours.
Our pansies start life as plugs and are potted, by means of our Vissa Automatic Transplanting machine, into 9cm pots. They are then placed in one of our many polytunnels for three weeks until they are established, when they are then moved outside to grow on ready for sale.
We grow two varieties of pansy for the winter market, Mariposa (Mixed and Single Colour) and Delta (Mixed Colours). Mariposa is a new variety we now grow to replace the renowned Ultima series, it is of a naturally compact habit and produces earlier and more abundant flowers than its predecessor. Pansies are without doubt the best winter flowering plant on the market today, and are by far the best for a landscape situation.
Delta has a larger flower than Ultima and is therefore more suited to impulse sales; the plants are compact and perform well in both winter and early spring.
Growing our plants outside makes them very hardy, giving them a longer shelf life than plants that are supplied direct from a greenhouse.
We also grow for stock Primrose, Polyanthus and Bellis. All can be grown to exact requirements when grown to contract.
