About the range:
The ‘So Cool’ range has been bred in Australia for our dry climate and for their neat, dense growth habit. The So Cool range has an amazing garden performance with all plants having a long flowering period throughout the year. These plants thrive in the sun and can tolerate dry, open soils that may lack moisture during dry spells. The So Cool range have smaller, narrow foliage, giving a tighter, dense effect. You will find a selection of cool colours ranging from romantic pastel blues, purples to vivid dark hues of purple. This range is ideal for potted containers for aromatic display, as these plants can survive in a pot for their entire life, this is all thanks to their compact growth. Adding colour to a balcony, patio or by the front door has never been so easy.

Why plant? 
These are highly rewarding plants as they can provide a safe haven for many of our friendly pollinators, all whilst being a fantastic food source for our native and exotic bees. They are long-flowering plants which are perfect for cottage-style gardens or for a potted display. They can be pruned after flowering to encourage a second flush of flowers to emerge within a matter of just a few weeks. Easy to grow, colourful perennials that any keen gardener would want in their garden!
