## Description

Plants are sold in half litre sized pots (9cm pots that are nearly pint sized, about 520ml in capacity).  All the cultivars we sell have been grown and tested in our own garden (which is an RHS partner garden open to the public).  When your plants arrive they can usually be planted straight out after soaking in water for 3 or 4 minutes. A good rule of thumb; make the soil level of the pot level with the rest of your border when planting out. Another rule of thumb; nearly all our plants will grow in indirect sunlight; we are in the British Isles after all. Another rule of thumb (!); Plants usually do better in the ground, which is unsurprising because that where they can from! Containers are ok if plants are kept fed and watered during their growing months, and in a warmer place during the winter. Try not to over water!  During the year plants can be in various states of growth. The same plant delivered in early spring could be much bigger or smaller if delivered in late spring. Please be aware of this when ordering or receiving them.  Some plants may have their flowers and foliage cut back when we send them, and look a bit awful! Don't worry, it is for their own good; some plants like to travel light. Similarly bulbs, rhizomes, and some plants may be dormant or dying back for the year when you order them, they may even look dead - that is the nature of hardy perennials so don't worry. Plant them out and wait, perhaps until next year, patience is a virtue in the hardy perennial game. Eventually your hardy perennials should grow back beautiful year after year. Again, this is the nature of hardy perennials - they die back and grow back, die back and grow back, year after year after year. Some years are better than others. You get the picture!  Postage and packaging is a flat fee of £3.99 per order  If you are for some reason upset in any way please contact us - we're human.

## Features

- About this item
- About this cultivar: Ligularia 'Little Rocket' is a shorter hybrid from breeder Marco Fransen selected for its compact habit and heavy flower production. A profusion of bright yellow flower spikes rocket above the clump of large, rich green, serrated leaves in midsummer. Let this one 'take off' in you garden and it will give you a 'blast' of colour!
- About this genus: Ligularia (from the Latin for "strap", referring to the shape of the ray floret) is an old world group in the daisy family that is used as both foliage and flowering plants in the garden. There is some confusion about Ligularia and Farfugium. These two genera used to be a single genus, Ligularia, but were split into the cold-loving Ligularia (roughly 140 species) and the warm-loving Farfugium (2 species).
- The large leaves make great foils for the foliage of lacier plants while imbuing the garden with a bit of the exotic; you don’t have to rely on plants from the equatorial zone to get a dose of drama! They mostly have impressively lush foliage but are not just one-trick ponies, either; their exuberant flowers can be impressive, too. They usually flower in the autumn, producing clusters of butterfly-attracting, yellow composite blooms.
- Ligularia prefers moist soil as found in its native habitat along stream banks and other bodies of water. We grow our Ligularia in partial shade, we also grow some in full sun where the soil is sufficiently moist. You can try in in almost full shade areas I'm told. Ligularia pairs well with Hosta, Iris, and ferns . Depending on the species, Ligularia can be used as a backdrop to smaller plants or as a specimen plant.
- Position: Full sun, partial shade Soil: Almost any soil, grows well in Ballyrobert Flowers: June, July, August Other features: Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit (RHS AGM) Hardiness: Fully hardy, grows well in Ballyrobert Habit: Clump forming Foliage: Deciduous Height: 60 - 90 cm (2 - 3 ft) Spread: 30 - 60 cm (1 - 2 ft) Time to full growth: 2 to 5 years Plant type: Herbaceous Perennial Colour: Green, yellow Goes well with: Hosta, Iris, Ferns

    Looking forward to when it grows
  

*by C***L on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 October 2019*

Hopefully this plant will grown into itself.  I just have a stalk and a minute leaf at present but do have green fingers so all should be well. Quite small well packaged but love the plants from this supplier so have confidence all will be well.
