Good for naturalising in turf or in the border, the flowers, which can grow up to 10cm in diameter, can also be cut for the vase. - Garden care: Plant 10-15cm (4-6in) deep from late summer to early autumn. After flowering feed with a balanced fertiliser, deadhead and allow the leaves to die back naturally.
