{"product_id":"centaurea-montana-amethyst-dream","title":"Centaurea montana 'Amethyst Dream'","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCentaurea montana 'Amethyst Dream' is a captivating perennial known for its striking, deep amethyst-blue flowers. This variety of mountain bluet stands out with its large, thistle-like blooms that are edged in silver, creating a dazzling contrast against the grey-green foliage. Blooming from late spring to early summer, 'Amethyst Dream' offers a prolonged display of color and can re-bloom in the fall if deadheaded. It's an excellent choice for adding vibrancy to borders, cottage gardens, and wildflower meadows. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, 'Amethyst Dream' is also valued for its ease of care, drought tolerance once established, and ability to attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhy we like it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDeep amethyst-blue flowers with silver edges provide stunning color contrast\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAttracts pollinators, supporting garden biodiversity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDrought tolerant and low maintenance, ideal for easy-care landscapes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhat to know\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThrives in full sun to partial shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePrefers well-drained soil; tolerates a range of soil types\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWater regularly until established, then only as needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDeadhead spent blooms to encourage re-blooming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDivide clumps in spring or autumn to maintain vigor and promote dense growth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFlower colour\u003c\/strong\u003e Amethyst-Blue with Silver Edges\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFlowering months\u003c\/strong\u003e May, June, and possibly re-blooming in fall\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHeight and Spread\u003c\/strong\u003e Height: 45-60 cm Spread: 30-45 cm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SCHRAM NURSERIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49231924199751,"sku":"1105822","price":9.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0661\/8821\/4500\/files\/Centaurea_montana_Amethyst_Dream_2_1024x1024_7f743191-2f5c-425f-8dec-659ef4a74d81.webp?v=1710438046","url":"https:\/\/www.newlands.ie\/en-gb\/products\/centaurea-montana-amethyst-dream","provider":"Newlands Garden Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
