Polyanthus Stella Cherryade

Awaken your garden from its winter slumber with the striking Polyanthus Stella Cherryade. This variety is a true showstopper, featuring deep, jewel-like cherry-pink petals that fade into a crisp white edge, all radiating from a glowing golden-yellow heart. These dependable and beautifully compact perennials bring a much-needed splash of vibrancy to the garden, providing a tidy structure and reliable performance when the rest of the landscape is only just beginning to stir.

Our Stella Cherryade plants are supplied as premium, fully established 1L rootballs, offering a far more robust start than standard garden plugs. Grown professionally in peat-free compost, they arrive with strong root systems and are often already in bud or flowering, ready to provide an immediate sensory delight. Beyond their rich colour and soft, velvety texture, these hardy plants are a lifeline for early-season pollinators, offering a vital nectar source for bees as they emerge in the late winter and early spring.

Key features:

• Vibrant Bicolour Blooms:Stunning cherry-red to pink petals with a distinct white picotee edge and yellow centre.

• Instant Impact:Supplied as large 1L established plants, significantly bigger than plugs for immediate garden colour.

The sheer energy that Cherryade brings to a container. The contrast between the deep pink petals and the bright yellow center is so cheerfulits like a little burst of sunshine on a grey February morning. We love planting these in window boxes where you can see the intricate white “frosting” on the edges of the petals every time you look out the window.
