Sunkissed Blend - blend of 4 young plants
Ajuga, Heuchera, Carex, Muhelenbeckia
Arrived in a sorry state. On this composition of 4 young plants, I only have 3, even though I paid for 4. I hope the other 3 will thrive considering their condition. I am very disappointed. In this field of plants, I don't have the creeping bugle. I do not recommend this purchase.

Description
The Sunkissed Blend from the Autumn Fairy collection brings together four carefully chosen perennial plants in a single container, selected for their varied leaf textures and colours. They harmonize beautifully and remain decorative for a long time, especially in summer and autumn. They are all easy to grow in pots or in the ground. Already composed and ready to plant, this lovely mix allows you to tastefully dress up your terrace or garden for an immediate and lasting effect.
The Sunkissed Blend includes:
- 1 x Ajuga: a perennial plant for partial shade, with wavy foliage and young leaves tinged with pink that turn variegated green and white-cream. Its delicate scented, bright lavender-blue flower spikes are very decorative and start in June, lasting for over a month. The above-ground vegetation persists in winter.
- 1 x Heuchera: a heuchera with caramel-gold foliage with bronze highlights. This perennial plant has extremely light floral spikes adorned with tiny white-pink bells in summer. The foliage more or less persists in winter.
- 1 x Carex, a small non-invasive perennial grass with long, slender blue-green leaves. Its graceful tufted growth persists in winter.
- 1 x Muehlenbeckia complexa: a climbing or trailing perennial with slender brown stems bearing tiny round green leaves no larger than confetti. It has a very delicate appearance and is a low-maintenance, highly tolerant plant with average hardiness (-10 to -12°C (14 to 10.4°F)). The foliage persists in mild winters. In the ground, it can grow quite large (up to 4m (13ft)).
Grown in the same pot, these perennial plants are a perfect match. They should be repotted in a larger container to showcase them on the balcony or terrace. This composition can also be planted in the ground, in full sun or partial shade, in well-drained, rich, and relatively moist soil.

Planting and care
Plant your Sunkissed Blend in spring or early autumn, in a large container to allow the plants to fully reach their potential. Use rich and light potting soil and water regularly. Apply universal fertilizer in spring. Choose a semi-shaded exposure, avoiding scorching sun. The created pot can withstand winter outside as all the plants are hardy, but Muehlenbeckia can perish in severe frost (-10 to -12°C (14 to 10.4°F)).
In the ground: if your soil is heavy, mix in some potting soil and sand and place your composition so the top of the root ball is covered with 2-3 cm (1in) of soil. The addition of a base fertilizer will nourish your plants during the rooting period without the risk of burning. Firm the soil and water generously to eliminate air pockets. If the weather is dry, you will need to water regularly for a few weeks to aid establishment, then water your plants if it is very dry. We recommend pruning the leaves and dry stems in February-March.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
