This impressive hardy perennial forms clumps of tall slender stems, topped with sunny yellow flower spikes from mid-summer onwards.

Naturalising well in a wild or woodland garden, dotted loosestrife is a valuable late-summer perennial, flowering when many other plants are past their best. Height: 90cm (35"). Spread: 60cm (24"). Supplied as plug plants.

Pot up Lysimachia punctata plants and grow them on frost-free conditions until large enough to plant outside. When loosestrife plants are well grown, acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over 7 to 10 days before planting them outdoors. Plant Lysimachia in moist, fertile soil that does not dry out in summer; adding plenty of compost or well rotted manure prior to planting. Golden Lysimachia will happily grow in clay soil, bog gardens or at the margins of a pond. Choose a final position in sun or semi-shade.

Feed and water Lysimachia plants regularly until they are fully established. In autumn, remove old foliage and faded flower stems. Divide overcrowded clumps of dotted loosestrife in spring and apply a mulch of well rotted manure or garden compost to the base of the plants.

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.
