Organic Polemonium – Jacob’s Ladder Collection

The name “Jacob’s Ladder” comes from the plant’s unique pinnate leaves, which resemble the rungs of a ladder, creating a striking textural element even when not in bloom. Grown organically, these plants are free from synthetic chemicals, making them a sustainable and eco-friendly choice for gardeners committed to supporting the environment. Their nectar-rich flowers are a magnet for pollinators like bees and butterflies, enhancing biodiversity and creating a haven for wildlife in your garden.

Perfect for partially shaded spots, Polemonium thrives in moist, well-drained soil enriched with organic matter. Its ability to flourish in less sunny areas makes it an excellent choice for those tricky garden spaces where other plants may struggle. Blooming from late spring into early summer, Jacob’s Ladder provides weeks of colour and interest, brightening shaded borders and creating soft, calming visuals.

Caring for Polemonium is refreshingly simple. Start by soaking the bare roots in water before planting them at the correct depth, ensuring the crown is just at soil level. Regular watering during dry spells, combined with an annual application of organic mulch, will keep the plants healthy and blooming. Deadheading spent flowers encourages further flowering, while a light trim after the growing season promotes a tidy appearance.

Whether you’re looking to create a pollinator-friendly haven, add colour to shaded areas, or introduce a classic perennial to your planting scheme, Organic Polemonium offers versatility and charm in abundance. Its soft blue flowers and intricate foliage blend harmoniously with other garden favourites, making it an essential addition to any UK garden.
