Description


Hypochaeris radicata, produces a dazzling, natural summer display of colour Dandelion-like blooms are perhaps the brightest shade of yellow of any flower. A rosette forming perennial with hairy, oblong leaves. Known as Cat's Ear because of the soft downy foliage. Use young leaves in salads or stir-fries; blooms in summer and autumn. The soaring popularity of wildflower meadows is illustrated by their use in the most prestigious RHS show gardens. No garden is too small to happily host insects, birds, and other wildlife. Present a veritable feast of seeds, leaves, nectar, and pollen, whilst creating a safe habitat for shelter and a perfect place for them to breed. Hypochaeris radicata has an RHS hardiness rating of H4 and prefers to be grown in moist, well-drained soil in sun or part shade. A fully hardy annual, she will reach a height of 30cm and spreads to 10cm. Remember to collect the seed so it can be sown for the following year.
