Data sheet
Seed raised plants from self-pollinated flowers of "Betty Ranicar". Most of the plants will be double white, a few anemone-centred white and singles.
Aquilegia caerulea cultivar, long spurred sky blue flowers with white centres, like a softer version of 'Magpie'.
A beautiful grass from Peru where it grows on elevated dry plateau on gravelly ground. In Australia it tends to flower autumn to winter, and prefers to dry off in summer, although in mild areas it seems to flower continuously if dead headed. Cut older plants back to half after flowering once growth begins to show signs of drying off. The white flowers...
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.
An easily grown long flowering bushy perennial for a sunny spot, repeat flowers during summer and early winter if dead headed. A fine backdrop for lower perennials and fills out well between roses and salvias.
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.
Widely known as the "English" snowdrop, these are native to Turkey and the Caucasus, described by British botanist and plant hunter Henry John Elwes in his botanical expedition to the Caucasus in 1874. One of the more robust species, elwesii is easily recognised by its wider leaf and large flower. Best in a cool shady position on well drained but fertile...
Delightful variety from Wychwood, lovely range of foliage colour including greys, purples and pinks. Distinct from 'Matrona' and 'Purple Emperor', with lower more branched form. Looks good all year both in pots and in the ground. My favourite sedum.
Soft primrose yellow yarrow, good for floral work and cottage gardens. Easy to grow, perennial. Also referred to in herbal medicine, said to aid in the relief of colds and chest complaints.
Remarkable new euphorbia bred by us, with compact mounds of greyish green pewter foliage, lime green flowers spotted red. Wonderful foliage plant for landscaping with miscanthus, sedums, and westringia.
A local plant Ive always loved on the roadsides in summer on Bruny, flowering creamy white in massed colonies. A worthwhile addition to summer perennial plantings with sedums, austrostipa, agastache, and miscanthus. Lower growing and more slender than many other grasses.
Tall wand like stems, topped with pink bells, a lovely waterside plant, or well situated where it has some space around it so its form can be appreciated. Cut back occasionally.
Old fashioned 'shasta daisy' (syn. Leucanthemum superbus) with tall strong stems for picking, bullet proof plant that is reliably perennial and will grow almost anywhere.
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.
Clumping Central European species with white fringed flowers. For drystone, trough or rockgarden.
Faded lilac purple, like old velvet. Subtle colour lovely in drifts with other varieties for tapestry of colours.
