Cosmos National Collection holder Jonathan Sheppard (@thejsheppard) is exhibiting a range of Cosmos bipinnatus at this year’s RHS Chelsea Flower Show — including a brand new cultivar from Thompson & Morgan’s breeding programme: Cosmos ‘Fondant Fancy’, with deep pink, saucer-shaped blooms. With a passion for sustainability, his plants are all home grown without peat or pesticides. Despite being knee-deep in preparations, this eco-friendly grower gave us a sneak peek at what goes on behind the scenes.
The Thompson & Morgan horticultural team produces a wealth of content around gardening and food production. Since the first seed catalogue was published in 1855, Thompson & Morgan has grown to become one of the UK’s largest Mail Order Seed and Plant companies. Through the publication of our catalogues and the operation of our award-winning website, Thompson & Morgan is able to provide home gardeners with the very best quality products money can buy.
