Data sheet
White form of the Algerian iris, equally as hardy as the blue forms. Best in free draining soil, colonizes well over time forming grassy mounds flowering in winter. Ideal mass planting under shrubs or specimen plant.
One of our favourite late season rudbeckias, a tall late summer flowering variety with lemon yellow green centred flowers on strong rigid stems, ideally suited to heavier soil types.
One of the best Geranium pratense crosses , flowering all through summer with lovely dark blue flowers reminiscent of Geranium himalayense. Compact shape and long-flowering.
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.
Beautiful red tinged grass, otherwise known as Japanese Blood Grass. Foliage becomes progressively redder as the season advances, this is a slow growing moisture loving variety that grows best in pots or in fertile soil in a sheltered environment, and is relativley slow growing. Will spread to form a clump over time.
A pretty and long flowered plant for a damp soil in a sheltered position forms a nice clump. Grows well amongst other perennials or under roses.
Medium height violet aster, prolific flowering in autumn. Easy cultivation as with other varieties
The best white persicaria we have tried, as with Taurus and others, these will flower in summer but good much and soil fertility will ensure their best performance. Waist high or fraction higher in moister conditions, basal foliage with drifts of vertical white spikes. We like to plant these in clumped groups of 5 or 9 at 25cm spacings for best effect.
Medium height with stongly vertical stems of rich pink flowers in summer, easy plant for the cottage garden.
Useful to create blocks of colour during summer, when many spring flowers have finished blooming. A useful cut flower, the soft colour tones of yarrow are most welcome in mixed bunch combinations.
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.
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
Pink form of Astrantia major: a good companion for hostas and dicentras in woodland.
A dark flowered seedling I selected at Richard Bramleys "Farmyard Nursery" in Wales. An improvement on "Moerheim Beauty", with deep orange red flowers in mid to late summer.
The beautiful 'snakes head' Fritillaria. Easy to grow but requires drainage, moderate fertility with organic matter content in the soil and a cool position. Best in part shade in the rockgarden, or in a large pot or raised bed. Colour can vary from pink to purple, rarely but occasionally white.
Prolific low mounding erigeron with long flowering habit, useful for many planting applications. Looks great as a path edging or border mass planting or fill under roses, and needs minimal care or water.
