Sassy Summer Lemon is a showy plant bursting with bright yellow/lemon flowers. It provides lots of blooms which are great for both cutting and drying. A vital addition for beds and borders, city gardens and containers. These turn to a warm peach during the season.

Achillea named after the Greek mythological hero Achilles as, according to legend his soldiers grew it to treat their wounds. Most Achillea have fern like, aromatic, rich green foliage and large, flat clusters of tiny flowers on tall stems. These flowers can vary hugely in colour depending on the variety and are very attractive to insects.

    Our pot & plant size explained

    At Newlands Nursery we grow and sell plants in a variety of different sizes, from small starter plants up to planted containers. 

    We know it can be tricky to picture the size of each plant. This page gives you an idea of the size of the plants we are sending out.

    Please keep in mind that plants vary from one season to the next. The size of the plant refers to the pot or plug it is grown in, rather than the height of the plant, unless specifically mentioned on the plant page.

    Starter Plant (Plug Plant)

    Plug Size: 2cm by 4cm. Our most popular size. This is often the most economical way of buying plants and is a great way to get a head start on the season. Generally this size is best to be potted up before planting out.
