Clusters of tiny, royal purple blooms form large, dense flower heads which will add a superb splash of colour in the garden from July to October and provide a wonderful, sweet fragrance. Heliotrope marine is a compact variety that produces low mounds of dark green wrinkled leaves, tinted with purple. ?Cherry Pie? makes an excellent choice for growing in a patio pot, where you can make the most of its heavenly scent up close. Also great for the front of borders where its nectar-rich blooms will attract plenty of pollinating insects. For a vibrant colour contrast, partner Heliotrope marine with orange bedding plants. Height and spread: 45cm (18in).
