Gentiana verna

The classic spring-flowering Gentian. The colour says it all and for most people that is enough.

One of those 'must have' plants and an essential in any alpine garden. Perfect for growing in a trough or similar special place. Not difficult to grow but sometimes short-lived - although if you leave the faded flowers it will self-seed if you are lucky. And not too tidy! About 10 cm tall and keeps to a neat bun of somewhat fleshy, glossy leaves.

We don't have many plants to sell for spring 2016 but hope to have many more later on.
