Tall Phlox paniculata type, soft pink flowering in summer, best on fertile moisture retentive soil with astrantia, delphiniums and herbaceous perennials.
Close relative to Salvia nemorosa with wider leaves and violet purple flowers. Clumping plant, best cut down to refresh over winter, long flowering and suits mass planting.
The purple foliage form of the common elderberry with pink tinged flowers. Similar uses as the green form, attractive garden plant.
Slender wiry stems topped with lolly pink pompoms about the size of a mulberry, flowering for months in summer. Like other sanguisorba they are drought tolerant, but like some clay below the surface.
A pretty and long flowered plant for a damp soil in a sheltered position forms a nice clump. Grows well amongst other perennials or under roses.
An attractive foliage contrast to plant with hostas and woodland plants in moist shade or part sun around water features. These flower well in summer, and look great with Ligularia, Thalictrum and Filipendula as a backdrop. Rose pink flowers.
We have selected this form for its showy larger than usual flowers and longer stem, which suits cutting for floral arrangements. To get the best out of these, plenty of fertility and moisture, shade to part sun.
Seldom offered perennial variety with lovely soft lilac bells, clumping and non-invasive. Grow between lupins, roses and salvias in the cottage garden or perennial border.
A lovely geranium for a partly sheltered cottage garden setting, producing lavender soft pink flowers forming an attractive clump. Best in good soil with some protection from wind, ideal between roses.
A legendary oriental poppy with a distinct colour break from the usual pinks and reds, producing the most intriguing plum purple blooms. The dark flowers are subject to sun and wind burn so provide some shelter. If these are out of stock, we normally have more coming on in propagation.
Native to Japan, a lower growing variety with attractive lobed leaves and pink bottlebrush flowers. In Australia part shade is best, on fertile clay or moisture retentive soil.
One of our favourite verbeena which flower for SUCH a long time! Lavender pink flowers and mounding habit, division grown non seeding.
