Pink Summer Flower Mix is a carefully balanced blend of annual flowers in light and deep pink tones, designed to give a romantic, colourâmatched display through the summer months. Plants reach about 80â90 cm in height, making them a natural choice for the middle of borders, loose cottageâstyle plantings and informal cutting patches.â
The mix combines easyâtoâgrow annuals with different flower forms and staggered flowering times, so the look of the bed changes as the season goes on. Many varieties have long, graceful stems that are perfect for gathering into simple handâtied bouquets straight from the garden.â
