🌱 Planting Tips
For best results, prepare your border by loosening the soil to a depth of 30 cm and removing any weeds. Space plants roughly 40 cm apart, working from the back of the border to the front. Water in well after planting and mulch around each plant to retain moisture and suppress weeds. The plants in this pack are chosen to be hardy in Irish conditions and need little aftercare once established.
