FAQs
Are these plants frost-hardy?
The mix is specifically curated for the autumn season, designed to withstand cooler temperatures and typical autumn weather.
How often should I water them?
Check the soil moisture daily. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, ensuring the soil remains moist but not waterlogged.
Can I plant these directly into the ground?
Yes, they are suitable for both containers and open garden borders.
Will I get the exact plants shown in the photos?
Because the selection is hand-picked for peak seasonal health, the specific varieties may vary to ensure you receive the highest quality plants available.
Do I need to fertilize these plants?
Using a quality compost when planting is usually sufficient for the autumn season. Additional feeding is typically unnecessary as growth slows in cooler weather.
Troubleshooting
Plants are wilting shortly after planting
This is often due to transplant shock. Ensure the soil is moist and provide light shade for a few days to help them settle.
Water pooling on the soil surface
The soil may be too compacted or the container lacks sufficient drainage. Improve drainage by adding grit to the soil or checking the pot's drainage holes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your plants, begin by choosing a container with adequate drainage holes or prepping your garden soil with high-quality, well-draining compost. Gently remove the plants from their nursery pots and loosen the root ball slightly before placing them in the ground or container. Backfill with soil and press down gently to eliminate air pockets. Water the plants thoroughly immediately after planting. For ongoing care, monitor the moisture levels in your pots; autumn wind can dry out soil faster than expected. While these plants are resilient, avoid letting the soil dry out completely until the plants have established a strong root system in their new location.
