Sixty Muscari Bulbs Offer
CAM52
Perhaps the Best £14.70 You Will Spend on Your Garden
There is a curious thing about Muscari.
If you asked gardeners to list their favourite flowers, many would name tulips, roses, peonies or lilies. Yet take Muscari away and they will be immediately missed.
Perhaps it is because they appear when colour still feels scarce. Perhaps it is their ability to settle into a garden and look as though they have always belonged there. Whatever the reason, few bulbs give so much pleasure for so little outlay.
Which brings me to this collection. We have brought together four distinct varieties at a value price:
Fifteen Muscari armeniacum Marleen, Fifteen Muscari Siberian Tiger, Fifteen Muscari Latifolium, Fifteen Muscari Peppermint. RRP of this collection, with postage, is £26.80. For you, the full collection of SIXTY BULBS is only £14.70 with free delivery - a saving of 45%.
15 x Muscari armeniacum ‘Marleen’
Produces masses of very large deep cobalt-blue flowers that bring bold spring colour and rich fragrance to the garden. Bulb size 10/+cm.
15 x of the robust and resilient Muscari Siberian Tiger
Boasts strong, pure white flowers, ideal for naturalising. These sturdy blooms bring a crisp, clean look to any garden, standing out against lush green foliage. Bulb size 8/+cm. Awarded RHS AGM.
15 x Muscari 'Latifolium'
Presents a true spectacle with distinct, light blue buds contrasting against dark blue flowers on strong, sturdy stems. The unique broad leaf adds a lush green backdrop, making the blossoms burst even more. Bulb size 7/+cm. Awarded RHS AGM.
15 x Muscari ‘Peppermint’
Produces compact spikes of soft blue flowers that gently fade to frosty white at the tips, creating a fresh and delicate spring display. The sweetly scented blooms of ‘Peppermint’ are perfect for edging paths, filling patio pots, or weaving beneath shrubs and taller spring bulbs for layered seasonal colour. Bulb size 9/+cm.
What strikes gardeners about Muscari is the imbalance between cost and reward.
The bulbs themselves are small. The space they require is modest. They ask little of the gardener.
Yet when they emerge, they seem to appear everywhere at once. Along a path. Beneath deciduous shrubs. At the front of a border where little else has begun. They draw the eye because they arrive at precisely the moment the garden needs them.
The purchase takes a moment. The enjoyment lingers for weeks.
Orders will be dispatched by the end of September, each variety, individually bagged and labelled.
Some gardening purchases are expensive and forgotten… but not these sixty Muscari.

Cameleon
CAM53
The Pleasure Of Discovering You Planned Ahead
Most bulbs are bought with a picture in mind. You see the photograph. You imagine the colour. You find space for them. Alliums are bought for different reasons. Every garden has moments when plenty is growing, yet something feels missing. The plants are healthy. The border is full. But the eye has nowhere to rest. Everything occupies the same layer. Then the alliums arrive.
Not at the front of the border and not hidden within it. They rise above it. A few feet of stem carries each flower head into the air, where it catches the sun and enhances the planting beneath. One sphere can shine a light on a surprising amount of garden.
This collection has been chosen with this job in mind.
FIFTY bulbs across six varieties. 10 x Sphaerocephalon, 10 x Moly Jeannine,5 x Purple Sensation, 10 x Cameleon, 5 x Atropurpureum, 10 x Caeruleum.
FIFTY allium bulbs would usually cost £31.95 including postage. Our price is £17.55 with free delivery, a saving of 45%.
Sphaerocephalon extends the performance into summer, threading its burgundy drumsticks through the border, Moly Jeannine brings yellow where it matters most, Purple Sensation provides bold structure, Cameleon offers variation in both structure and form. Atropurpureum adds depth, and Caeruleum introduces clear blue amongst the purples.
Good gardeners always return to alliums. Not because they are difficult. Not because they are rare. Because they do a job that few other plants can do.
Plant these this autumn and there will be long stretches when you give them no thought at all.
Then one day next year you will walk into the garden and notice your border feels complete.
Not fuller. Complete.
Delivered by the end of September, while next year's garden is still taking shape in your imagination.

Clematis
CAM54
The best plants improve things you already own.
A garden can contain hundreds of flowers and still feel short of interest.
The problem is rarely colour.
The problem is attention.
The eye settles into familiar routes. Borders perform their role. Shrubs become part of the background. Fences, arches and trellis panels exist without being noticed.
Then a plant changes the pattern.
This is what appealed to us about this collection of three RHS Chelsea multiple gold-medalist Raymond Evison’s clematis…and may I add, a fellow Royal Warrant holder.
Most years, de Jager does not offer plants at all. We focus on quality bulbs. Every so often, however, we come across something which earns its place alongside our curated bulbs.
This collection contains three established clematis plants: one each of Florida Alba Plena, Diamantina and Empress.
Florida Alba Plena - Most double clematis seek attention through colour. Florida Alba Plena takes a different approach. The creamy green-white flowers bring contrast and calm, creating a pause among stronger shades. The unusual double centres reward closer inspection, while the long flowering season ensures it remains part of the garden's conversation for months rather than weeks.
Diamantina is a plant which reveals itself in stages. Rounded buds build anticipation before opening into layers of mauve, purple and soft pink. The effect changes as each flower matures, giving the plant a sense of movement through the season. Diamantina turns a fence, arch or trellis into something worth revisiting.
Empress defines its part of the garden. The large pink double flowers and intricate central rosettes bring presence to walls, trellises and containers, drawing the eye from a distance and holding attention up close. The result is not simply colour, but a structure in the garden which feels purposeful and complete.
Their fully double flowers are what set these apart.
The result is not simply more flowers.
It is a more interesting garden.
Flowering from May into September and often October, these varieties continue performing long after many plants have finished their annual display. Raymond Evison's breeding work has also helped remove much of the uncertainty which once discouraged gardeners from growing clematis.
Supplied as established plants in 7cm pots, this collection has an RRP of £33.
Our price is £24, a saving of 27%.
As these are established living plants rather than dormant bulbs, they require individual, careful, nursery handling, packing and delivery. A postage charge of £5.95 therefore applies to this collection.
We secured fewer than 200 collections for this offer. Order now whilst stocks last.
Double-flowered clematis. Colour catches your eye. Details hold it.
With you in 7-10 days.

M5503
A pristine white Hellebore, treasured for its wide-petalled winter blooms. Helleborus ‘Niger’ flowers between January and March, illuminating garden spaces on some of the darkest days. Deeply cut, leathery foliage provides year-round interest towards the front of a woodland border.
Sturdy stems, up to 30cm tall, hold the crisp white flowers, blushed pink on the reverse, with a cluster of fine golden stamens.
Helleborus ‘Niger’ prefers humus-rich soil which remains moist and is well drained, in a partly shaded spot. Cut the leaves back to their base in winter when you notice buds emerge. This helps to prevent disease and allows the blooms to shine in the border.

Astonishingly free-flowering, one bulb will produce up to 15 heads, dancing above fine, grass-like foliage. This low-growing variety is shown to best advantage in rockeries, alpine beds, the edges of borders and containers. Narcissus ‘Golden Bells’ is remarkably vigorous and will form impressive carpets of colour if left to naturalise.
