Evergreen species from Morocco, with ornamental silver veining over the glossy dark green leaves. Silver and blue flowers in summer.
A lovely variation on 'Bicolor' with copper two tone flowers for much of winter. Perennial wallflowers require good drainage and dont like it too wet.
Remarkable new euphorbia bred by us, with compact mounds of greyish green pewter foliage, lime green flowers spotted red. Wonderful foliage plant for landscaping with miscanthus, sedums, and westringia.
Temperate bromeliad from Chile for sunny well drained position, also good in pots. The grey green rosette transforms to brilliant red when the wonderful azure flower appears. Likes winter wet and summer dry in our climate. Avoid clay.

A useful landscaping plant for dry areas in shade or part-sun. Interesting orange berries after flowering and evergreen leaves.
Native to the Black Sea and southern Georgia, a fine evergreen iris rarely seen in Australia. Grow in a cottage garden or perennial border setting, where it will produce blue flowers in mid winter. Visually very similar to Iris unguicularis flowering a few weeks later here in winter, however broader bladed & overall better foliage.
Evergreen Iris from Burma, China and Japan. An attractive species with fans of leaves and light blue flowers in early summer. I find the foliage effect of this plant very useful when combined with grasses, sedums and euphorbias. Interesting large seed heads.
Beautiful variation of the species from Crete, originally from Marcus Harvey. Winter flowering, and a great compact structure plant in rock gardens amongst dwarf bulbs and cyclamen. Low mounding shape with grassy foliage , cold and drought hardy, long lived and only 25cm high. Overall great plant.
Slender upright green, lemon and cream coloured poker , flowers fading to a softer colour as they age. Superb cut flower & accent plant amongst grasses and perennials.
A wonderful lime green variety, which visitors always comment on when in flower. A tidy plant that flowers for a long time and doesn't get too tall for the border.
A compact low growing variety for foreground plantings, only just over knee high and easier to manage than some of the larger kniphofia. Colourful lemon yellow flowers in summer look good with rudbeckia, grasses and sedums.
The deep orange pokers appear in mid summer with gaillardias, heleniums and rudbeckias. A shorter manageable variety that forms an evergreen mound of foliage. Easy to grow on most soil types.
I spotted this dwarf poker in the UK years ago, where I was struck by its compact form and abundant hot-orange pokers. It is winter dormant and makes a good grassy mound of leaves when not in flower.
