A trailing, small-flowered and prolific summer stunner, ‘Can-Can Double White Improved’ produces pure white ‘mini-rose’-like blooms all summer which look glorious trailing from hanging baskets or spilling from pots. Works well with silvery foliage plants such as Plectranthus argentatus ‘Silver Shield’ or Helichrysum 'Silver Mist' for a cooling seasonal display.
Pot up and grow on under glass until all risk of frost has passed and they can then either be planted outside into a well-prepared bed, or used to fill decorative pots and hanging baskets for the patio. Pinching out the growing tips will encourage them to become bushier, and feeding with a high-potash fertiliser at regular intervals throughout the summer will promote even more flowers to form.
