Miniature Flowered Plants

Miniature flowered are any under 3" in diameter

There is a particular charm and delicacy about these little plants and what they lack in bloom size they tend to make up for with increased flower production. Ideal for any size of garden and useful when space is at a premium, they are also well suited for growing in containers. Incidentally, the term "miniature" refers only to the flower size and not the height, although they are usually in proportion.

Jason Salter

(Salter E.H. 1987) Very famous award winner and breeding plant. The flower is a strong yellow of rounded form with an etched eye of raisin plum, if given the right conditions.
Usually reblooms here but I have to say it may as well not bother.
It does not perform well here and we are only selling it because we have heard good reports from elsewhere ¨ maybe it dislikes our heavy clay. L.A.A. winner 2000.
