Flat Pot Ø 50 cm

Ideal for hedges, borders and green roofs

Senecio cineraria is also known by the name Cineraria maritima or Jacobaea maritima, as well as simply Cineraria. It is an evergreen shrub characterized by highly ornamental silvery foliage.

The distinctive color of its velvety leaves makes the Cineraria plant look like a sculpture that will enhance your garden, whether it is a coastal garden (given its salt tolerance) or a refined moon garden. In the second half of spring, it produces a lovely golden-yellow bloom that is very popular with butterflies.

  • Habit and height: compact shrub, approximately 60 cm tall.
  • Foliage: evergreen, finely lobed, velvety, silvery leaves.
  • Flowering: between June and August, small bright yellow flowers loved by butterflies.
  • Hardiness: very hardy, drought- and salt-tolerant, and adapts to poor soils.
  • Ideal for: coastal, rocky, moon gardens, and low-maintenance gardens.
  • Soil: well-drained, even poor soil.
  • Exposure: full sun; tolerates partial shade.
  • Watering: regular during the first few months, then sparingly.
  • Pruning: remove faded flowers and prune lightly at the end of winter.

In the second half of spring (between May and June), it produces small golden-yellow flowers clustered in inflorescences that are very popular with butterflies; they are often removed to highlight the silvery foliage.

Grown mainly for its silvery and velvety foliage; it prefers full sun but tolerates partial shade, in well-drained and poor soils. Very resistant to drought and salt spray. Minimal maintenance: remove faded flowers and prune lightly at the end of winter.

Create colour contrasts with red or purple flowers such as Lavandula angustifolia; in mixed borders it combines with Phlomis fruticosa or with grasses such as Pennisetum setaceum.

FLAT POT SIZE Ø 50 CM

Instant effect: a finished garden from day one

Flatpots are well-established plants, grown in our nursery in a shallow, wide pot measuring Ø 50 cm. They arrive with a full crown and a wide root ball, with roots that spread outwards instead of circling.

The result is an instant impact: as soon as they are planted, hedges, borders and flowerbeds already have the appearance of a mature garden. You don't have to wait years for the plants to grow and, thanks to the wide and shallow root ball, they establish quickly: they are also ideal for green roofs and shallow soils.

They are the right choice for designers, landscapers and companies that need to deliver a finished project, and for anyone who wants to transform their garden in a single season.
