A terrific low growing variety for foreground plantings, only just over knee high and easier to manage than some of the larger kniphofia. Colourful burnt orange flowers in summer look good with rudbeckia, grasses and sedums.
Attractive dark stemmed form of Hydrangea macrophylla, flowers can vary from blue in acid soil or pink in alkaline. Old fashioned mop top flowers, good for floral work.

Fan iris, attractive foliage for floral work, and feathery white and lilac flowers in spring. Useful under trees and in larger spaces.

One of our favourite verbeena which flower for SUCH a long time! Lavender pink flowers and mounding habit, division grown non seeding.
