Eliminate the wait for your plants to mature with our XXL Bare Root Plant range. Planting these XXL clumps offers numerous advantages, particularly for achieving a quicker, more impactful and vibrant display, especially with varieties like Agapanthus, Geraniums or Peonies. These larger clumps, of established plants, provide immediate visual impact by having a well-developed robust root system and multiple green buds, all of which are individual plants which will spring to life once you plant them and work together to provide you with a stunning display from the first year of planting. They are also a great way to overcome the chance of losing younger plants to drought conditions as they are more mature and therefore drought-tolerant once planted.
