Martagons

Autumn 2013

We are currently taking orders for new season bulbs, these will be ready for despatch in September/October (2013).

We expect to add next years listings at around the time of the 2013 Chelsea flower show, if you would like us to keep you updated, please contact us at and we will send you a newsletter.

This section contains a range of hybrids derived from Lmartagon. They need a humus rich Alkaline soil to grow well, ideal for a woodland garden. All are hardy and scented. Further details can be found by selecting a variety.  Detailed cultural advice can be found on our Growing Tips. page.
