The slender stems arch and tremble in the breeze, adding movement and fluidity to planting schemes. 'Blackberry Bells' bears clusters of delicate, deep purple-pink, bell-shaped flowers which rise above clumps of slender, semi-evergreen, grass-like foliage in July, followed by attractive seedheads in late summer.

Grow Angel’s fishing Rod on in frost free conditions until large enough to plant outside. Once they are well grown, acclimatise Dierama plants to outdoor conditions over 7 to 10 days before planting outdoors on rich, fertile, well drained soil in full sun. Dierama particularly dislikes soil that sits wet in winter. Improve heavy soil conditions by adding coarse grit or sharp sand prior to planting.

Feed and water Angel’s fishing Rod plants regularly until fully established. Cut back faded Dierama flower stems and old foliage in spring. Dierama plants resent disturbance and overcrowded clumps are best lifted and divided only when necessary in spring.

Van Meuwen strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.
