Remarkable double white parma violet, sweetly perfumed and delicious. Plant as ground cover in shade under trees, combine with helleborus, anemone, dicentra, and epimedium. Similar to 'Swanley White' but as we have collected these from different sources we have listed separately.

My friend Paulette grew these from seed, and these are cutting raised plants from selected seedlings. Apparently the flowers are edible, I love the perfume and they flower forever with no fuss. Best in border or rock garden, rich pink flowers.

Horseradish, useful perennial for moist soils. Easy to grow and can sprout from roots, so position carefully.
Compact broad bush to 1.5m, vigorous and abundant fruiting.

As with other varieties, acid well drained soil with plenty of mulch and summer moisture.
