Mound forming succulent for sunny dry areas, pots or rock garden; best if kept dry. Attractive leaves in rosettes.
Long flowering agastache great for attracting butterflies into the garden. Summer flowering and one of the better agastache we have trialled, fertile loamy soil best, and will tolerate some clay if worked and mulched. We find these will only tolerate light occasional frost.
Spreading species from Ethiopia, useful for ground-cover in larger gardens. Suckers like a wild strawberry when happy, prefers part shade or clay based moisture-retentive soils.
Low mounding plant with silvery finely cut foliage and white daisies. Native to Sicily, extremely drought tolerant avoid over watering and wet areas. Cut back occasionally after flowering.
The lush green leaves resemble the foliage of a Hosta and look great in mass plantings beneath trees. New Zealand native with sprays of starry white flowers in summer.
Native to Mexico where it is now extinct in the wild. Otherwise known as chocolate cosmos, the flowers have a scent like chocolate. Best in fertile, well drained soil in a perennial border.
Large fleshy leafed variety with orange bells during winter. Easy in coastal gardens, good in pots and perennial plantings; a useful texture plant to combine with other succulents. Keep dry in winter.
One of the first plants I grew from cutting; quick growing and floriferous in a short space of time. In summer it requires complete cutting to the ground like an oriental poppy, and will resprout in autumn when there is sufficient moisture. Easy and quick to fill in spaces; pink flowers.
Tasmanian native flag iris, useful in combination with grasses and perennials. Lovely and abundant white flowers in spring, evergreen leaves and drought hardy.
Perennial wallflower that begins purple and transforms to apricot peachy tones as the flowers age, giving a lovely effect. Winter flowering, bird and butterfly attracting, fragrant.
Somewhat rampant if treated too well but extremely useful for colonising dry shady areas where not much else will grow. Makes an attractive weed-smothering clump of glossy foliage followed by plentiful lime-green flowers in late winter.
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 ground govering variety with coral red flowers in spring on wiry stems. Good for floral work and easy amongst geraniums and campanulas.
Mounding variety with reddish purple foliage, and white flowers. In fill plant for woodland with epimedium, myosotidium and Primula beesiana.
A dwarf variety with a groundcovering habit and sprays of coral flowers in spring. Long flowering.
A useful landscaping plant for dry areas in shade or part-sun. Interesting orange berries after flowering and evergreen leaves.
Clump forming perennial loosely resembling a diplarrhena or iris. Prefers part shade amongst other plants, ideal under roses or in a mixed border or cottage garden. White flowers in summer.
A robust self supporting Nepeta for the sunny border flowering for most of summer. Easier to manage than N. "Six Hills Giant" and great for mass plantings in place of lavenders.
Old fashioned "catmint", mostly used as a border or edging in cottage gardens. Soft blue flowers, trim lightly in mid summer for a repeat flower in autumn.
Terrific ornamental grass which has not shown any seedling to date, which makes it a very welcome addition as a foliage filler. The foliage is nicely mounding, evergreen and knee high, and the red pompom flower heads have almost the effect of a sanguisorba, later fading to a pleasant straw colour until mid winter providing an effective textural effect....
