My favourite variety for tea when used fresh, with rich clean flavour. Also dries well. Grow in sheltered garden out of hot afternoon sun.
'Russian Sage'; attractive blue flowers over grey foliage in mid summer onwards. An extremely drought hardy and frost hardy plant that likes well drained soil. Good for hedging and cottage garden with Lavandula 'Hidecote', Iris and blue geraniums.
Prostrate pink thyme only 1 cm high; plant as lawn or amongst stones, gravel or pavers for ground cover.
Parma type with sweet fragrance, soft lavender lilac double flowers, perfectly placed near a doorway or garden pathway where its subtle perfume can be appreciated.
Tangy lemon flavour and fragrance, add to stuffing, stew, and marinades. Also useful as ground cover in cottage garden or border plantings.
Vigorous form with pale flowers and larger leaves than other varieties. Vertical upright growth, suitable for specimen or hedging.
Tasmannia lanceolata. Cutting grown female plants for berry production, grow in part shade in moisture retentive soil. Will grow into small tree once established.
Lovely variety with flower spikes in peach and apricot tones, like the colours of old fashioned roses. Clumping habit and long flowering.
Paprika red yarrow, fades to attractive dusky red as flowers age. Easy drought and frost hardy perennial, medium height.
Lavandula officianalis. The best variety for the garden and low hedging, living longer than most others providing they get an annual chop. 'Hidecote' is light purple with long flower spikes.
Common "meadowsweet", an attractive perennial for damp soil with dozens of medicinal and culinary uses. The white fluffy flowers can be added sparingly to jam and stewed fruit, and can be used to flavour wine, beer and cordials. The root is also used in varied herbal remedies.
Portugese form of the pink rosemary, more true pink than Majorca pink and less upright, bushier and lower growing.
A dense growing multi stemmed variety prized for topiary and hedging, featured at Sissinghurst Castle. Bright blue flowers.
Australian bred cultivar, vigorous and ideal for our conditions and soil types, up to 2.4m. Sweet fruit and high yielding once established. Good keeping qualities and more resistant to bruising than other varieties.
