They may have just one season in the sun, but what a season: they flower for an incredibly long time and are invariably so spectacularly beautiful you'll lose your heart to them. We stock two kinds of annual in our garden centre in Pontypool: hardy annuals to sow direct from March onwards, and half-hardies to sow under cover as they don't like frost. Here are just some you'll find in our garden centre. Hardy annuals: Ammi majus: lacy white flowers over feathery foliage Poached egg plant (Limnanthes douglasii): cheery yellow-and-white flowers Love-in-a-mist (Nigella damascena): starry blue or white flowers followed by architectural seedpods Ladybird poppies (Papaver communtatum 'Ladybird'): scarlet papery petals each with a black blotch Nasturtiums: abundant red, orange or creamy flowers over rounded leaves Half-hardy annuals: Cosmos 'Purity': clear white daisies with yellow centres on long stems Zinnias: pompom flowers in brilliant scarlets, yellows and purples Swan river daisy: profuse mauve daisies tumbling over pots and baskets Nemesia: another perfect container plant with pretty, delicate blooms Tobacco plant (Nicotiana): charming open flowers in pink, cream and green over big leafy rosettes Please ask the staff in our Pontypool garden centre for more information and advice about choosing and growing annuals.

Cover alpines Cover alpines with a small cloche or pane of glass to keep off the worst of the rain. These exquisite little plants don't mind extreme cold, but can't tolerate soggy soil. Any with woolly or fleshy leaves, such as lewisias and saxifrages, are particularly susceptible so keep as dry as possible.
