The lowest growing of all the lambs ears, and a brilliant long lasting drought tolerant groundcover forming mats of velvety foliage maximum only 10cm tall. We use this extensively for edging borders and paths,and find it combines well with armeria, thymes, origanum rotundifolium, and dwarf bulbs.

Bloodroot. An ancient perennial and medicinal plant used by the native American people, it is very toxic and should not be used without professional consultaton. We grow it as an ornamental groundcover in woodland with hostas, epimedium and dicentra, it is deciduous with white flowers.
A shorter more compact form of the tall officianalis equally hardy and prolific, only growing to 80cm. Purple pom poms throughout summer, a good improvement for windy locations.
Old fashioned blue campanula with tall stems forming a nice clump in time. Ideal between roses and a good cut flower.
Old fashioned variety from Dennis Norgate with double red fragrant flowers, strong bushy grower with long enough stems to pick, without being fragile like many of the modern carnation varieties.
A popular and easily grown culinary herb that will form an excellent ground cover and cascade over a bank or wall.
The orange oriental perennial poppy, originally from Turkey. The blooms are impressive, and in good conditions the plant will make a large perennial clump in only a few years. Remove the first flower and avoid acid soils.
Climbing Tasmanian clematis with simple, white flowers. Dense, bushy growth and attractive olive green occasionally purple foliage. Responds well to pruning.
Terrific tall variety, white flowering. Basal foliage produces dozens of 2m flower spikes, superb summer flowering background, plant in heavier fertile soil, shorter in less ideal conditions.
Terrific ornamental grass which has not shown any seedling to date, which makes it a very welcome addition as a foliage filler. The foliage is nicely mounding, evergreen and knee high, and the red pompom flower heads have almost the effect of a sanguisorba, later fading to a pleasant straw colour until mid winter providing an effective textural effect....
Ornamental bronze tinged foliage plant for pond margins and clay soils; associates well with gunnera, filipendula, and Iris. Best in part shade, native to China and Japan.
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.
Ground covering plant, ideally suited to a sunny position in a border or rock garden. Allow to dry out in summer once established, peach and apricot flowers like old fashioned roses.
Leafy plant from saxifragaceae family, useful for ground cover in dry shade where acanthus and euphorbia can take over. Good drainage and neutral to alkaline soils preferred.
Old fashioned auricula, with petals red fading into strawberry and coral. Fertilise lightly with a mix of dolomite, potash and dynamic lifter.
