Waist high aster with large dark green leaves and late season blue/mauve daisies, a strong plant and easy amongst grasses or other perennials.
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.
Lovely fluffy flowering texture in summer providing great fill and a soft contrast. A great grass all round and in early stages grows much like 'Karl Forester' until flowering time, when it looks very different; responds best in heavier fertile soils, and to date doesnt seed here.
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.
One our favourite new grasses, waist high flowers with rich green foliage, creating good mounding fill and texture within summer perennial plantings. Grows best on heavier fertile soils, and responds well to moisture in summer if available, but not overly demanding.
A brilliant new cultivar with deep purple flowers. Easily cultivated in fertile moist soil, tall graceful stems.
A strong white succulent ground cover from Silver Banksia nursery, very tough and the rich green foliage provides a good contrast for the white flowers. Good over a rocky bank, wall, or general ground cover in drier sunny areas.
Enourmous biennial with a stout woody trunk and silvery downy foliage. Ornamental and a great feature plant. Pink flowers to 2.5 m, often takes two years to flower, needs dry conditions. Photo courtesy of Peter Worgan Mnt Teide Tenerife.
Early summer flowering resembling a blue aster, but flowering for much longer period and all round more contained and well behaved. Likes fertile drained soil
Pretty variety that begins soft yellow then fades as the flowers age. Prolific flowering during winter, liking drained soils and drying out a little in summer. Cut back fairly hard early summer to around 2/3 to half height to keep compact. Looks terrific in mass plantings like all the wallflowers.
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 softer apricot colour than the regular brighter tangerine variety, flowers for much of the year in fertile heavier soil types.
Selected from best local vineyard stock, the mature vines perform well in our cooler climate and produce a complex and rich flavoured pinot noir typical of our southern region. Summer prune to reduce risk of hosting mildew.
I love helianthemums for their abundant flowering, and superb ground covering abilities in poor growing conditions. We found this as a chance seedling and thought it was worth naming and propagating.
We were delighted with this very soft pink variation, in the colour range of Cyclamen libanoticum. Equally as tough as other varieties.
More sun tolerant than other hydrangea varieties, but adaptable to part shade also. Beautiful deciduous variety with densely clustered white panicles in summer. Lovely feature plant behind perennials with deciduous viburnums, or grouped in woodland settings.
Juniper berry plants for production of berries for flavouring gin and other goodies.Cutting grown female plants.
A terrific low growing variety for foreground plantings, only just over knee high and easier to manage than some of the larger kniphofia. Colourful burnt orange flowers in summer look good with rudbeckia, grasses and sedums.
Superb variety with attractive glossy foliage and rich golden blooms in winter. This variety prunes well and does not develop the scraggly appearance of other varieties if trimmed once a year.
