Vibrant Verge

Presenting Vibrant Verge

A designed perennial meadow with an extra long flowering period, by JUB Holland and Pictorial Meadows.

A total naturalistic planting solution now providing an even longer flowering period by combining winter to late spring flowering bulbs with spring to late summer flowering perennials.

Two mixes available to suit both open sunny and shady sites and presenting a constantly evolving and changing appearance over many successive years with great impact from the very first year.

Over 30 different flowering species in a carefully formulated mix of annuals, biennials, perennials, and bulbs to create initial densities of over 300 plants per metre. (150 bulbs, 150 forbs).

Preferred fertility range — Designed for average free draining landscape soils.

Preferred moisture range — Well drained soils and with a high tolerance for drought stress once well established. Not waterlogged soils.

Shade tolerance —

VV02 Shady Vibrant Verge performs best in semi-shade to open sun with different species migrating over time to deeper shade and into bright sunlight.

Recommended location — Private estates, parks, urban roadside verges, roundabouts highways, housing and incidental greenspaces where reliable long flowering, colour, visual impact, biodiversity with good pollinator value and lower maintenance is required.

Colour theme — This mix contains flowering meadow species of varied colours which will create ever changing seasonal interest.

Height details — Height depends on soil fertility but generally considered medium height with taller emergence.

Planting time — October to December.
