Data sheet
Tall spreading perennial for streamsides, ponds or clay soils. Pink fluffy flowers like an Astilbe, attractive foliage.
Wonderful summer flowering perennial from central Europe from Afghanistan to Tibet. Lavender blue flowers during the summer, popular in eastern herbal medicine.
A good salvia for open positions where it gets plenty of sun. Long flowering from mid summer onwards with literally hundreds of light blue flowers. Trim back annually like a lavender for best long term results.
A beautiful variety with silver and reddish flower heads that stand well above the foliage and last into winter. Like other varieties, cut down to ground level in winter every few years.
One of the few primrose-coloured salvias, medium height and prefers part shade. Combines well with perennials in the summer border or between roses.
The lovely white form which flowers earlier than the blue, and is equally easy. I raised our original stock plant from one white seedling which we later divided. Thanks Lindy for recovering this for me when I thought it had been lost forever!
Slender lower growing variety with pink tubular bells. Easily grown amongst other perennials, attractive on pond margins.
A wonderful winter foliage plant, most useful as ground cover around trees and deciduous shrubs. Foliage turns a red then dark chocolate providing it gets winter sun. Flowers yellow, introduced by Planthunters.
A brilliant low grass with outstanding flowers and seedheads, suitable for massed foreground plantings in landscape design work or in clusters amongst other perennials. A slender plant so plant closely at 25cm for best results. Not self seeding in our trial stockbeds.
Attractive evergreen ground cover for shade and moist soil, repeat flowers throughout the year.
Sky blue flowers, protect from wind in a walled garden or amongst shrubs or roses. As easy to grow as other varieties providing drainage is reasonable.
Traditional perennial poppy for good soil in full sun. Useful amongst roses and perennials in cottage garden environment. Large salmon pink flowers.
Old variety from Ken Gillanders collection; lovely ground covering habit and long flowering. I love finding new Helianthemum varieties, and value them greatly in our coastal dry herbaceous border, where they flower over a long period.
A delightful low growing clumping species with silver foliage, non invasive and evergreen foliage. Golden flowers like a smaller version of 'Gold Plate'.
Useful to create blocks of colour during summer, when many spring flowers have finished blooming. A useful cut flower, the soft colour tones of yarrow are most welcome in mixed bunch combinations.
