About the item

About this cultivar: Lythrum salicaria 'Blush' is a moisture-loving aceous perennial that produces strong, tall spires of soft pale pink flowers in summer. It is very attractive to butterflies and bees - often ed by bee-keepers! In these photos we have it paired with Alstroemeria 'Selina'..
About this genus: Lythrum (lith-rum) gets its name from the Greek lythron, blood, in allusion to the colour of the flowers. It is a genus of 38 species of flowering s native to the temperate world. Commonly known as loosestrife (a name they share with Lysimachia, which are not closely related). They are among 32 genera of the Lythrum family (Lythraceae)..
They are aceous annuals or perennials, but we only grow perennials. Typically they have square stems, narrow stalkless leaves, and spikes of star-shaped flowers in shades of purple, pink and white. The species Lythrum salicaria (purple loosestrife) and Lythrum virgatum are found mostly in cultivation. In parts of America they are regarded as invasive - which leads to much debate over there because they are also native to many states! Just farmers complaining I guess.....
They are especially associated with boggy areas, river banks and ponds, though in cultivation they often tolerate drier conditions. For us this means they grow almost anywhere - wet to dry - as long as there is some sun. The cultivars of Lythrum salicaria are attractive to bees. And I mean ATTRACTIVE! It has been introduced in many areas of North America by bee keepers, due to its abundunce of flowers which provide a large source of nectar!.

• s are sold in half litre sized pots (9cm pots that are nearly pint sized, about 520ml in capacity). • All the cultivars we sell have been grown and tested in our own garden (which is an RHS partner garden open to the public). • When your s arrive they can usually be ed straight out after soaking in water for 3 or 4 minutes. A good rule of thumb; make the soil level of the pot level with the rest of your border when ing out. Another rule of thumb; nearly all our s will grow in indirect sunlight; we are in the British Isles after all. Another rule of thumb (!); s usually do better in the ground, which is unsurprising because that where they can from! Containers are ok if s are kept fed and watered during their growing months, and in a warmer place during the winter. Try not to over water! • During the year s can be in various states of growth. The same delivered in early spring could be much bigger or smaller if delivered in late spring. Please be aware of this when ordering or receiving them. • Some s may have their flowers and foliage cut back when we send them, and look a bit awful! Don't worry, it is for their own good; some s like to travel light. Similarly bulbs, rhizomes, and some s may be dormant or dying back for the year when you order them, they may even look dead - that is the nature of hardy perennials so don't worry. them out and wait, perhaps until next year, patience is a virtue in the hardy perennial game. Eventually your hardy perennials should grow back beautiful year after year. Again, this is the nature of hardy perennials - they die back and grow back, die back and grow back, year after year after year. Some years are better than others. You get the picture! • Postage and packaging is a flat fee of £3.99 per order • If you are for some reason upset in any way please contact us - we're human.
