Yellow' can be easily raised from seed and comes true to colour. Hello Yellow' also flowers up to three weeks earlier than the wild form, beginning in June to the end of August. The flowering stems grow to 70 cm in moist, rich soil and is an excellent perennial for borders and for cutting. Healthy growth and good winter-hardiness are further features of the 'Snowdrift' variety which is 80 cm high and flowers from June to September. From our own production, we are now able to offer a mixture of the new generation of Russel-Hybrids that can be raised from seed, the Carnival range.
Carnival is a select strain with dense, large flowers an long-lasting spikes.
We have produced the seed ourselves from controlled, healthy and vigorous plants. Carnival is a colourful mixture of pure white, pink, red, yellow, orange, blue, pale blue, violet and glorious bicoloured combinations. The plants grow to 100 to 140 cm and bloom from the beginning of June to the middle of August. A few loose flowers can be produced the first autumn if sown in early spring but full development will be achieved the next year. Snow Tip' is a pure white variety with healthy dark-green foliage which quickly attracts the eye.
