White form of the blue 'speedwell', just as easy as the blue form. Both varieties are semi deciduous and respond well to cutting back.
Culinary thyme; we use this around the garden as a summer flowering ground cover together with Thymus "Minimus". Great around rocks, in the herb garden or in the border.
A large flowered rich blue purple aster that flowers late summer. Stout stems and self supporting, grows well in meadow plantings amongst grasses and other perennials such as delphinium, echinacea, and scabiosa.
Sculptural plant with large fleshy leaves from central Mexico. Great container and rock garden plant for sunny dry conditions, combine with other succulents and grasses.
Close relative of Echinacea angustifolia, also used in herbal medicine, sharing many similarities. I find it a better garden plant, more vigorous and productive in growth, and manages better in winter wet.
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.
Classical double white border carnation, with good fragrance and vigourous growth. Long lasting plant for rock garden or border. Cut back occasionally.
Paprika red yarrow, fades to attractive dusky red as flowers age. Easy drought and frost hardy perennial, medium height.
Evergreen plant from the iris family often used for mass planting. White flowers and strappy foliage, native of South Africa. Tough and easy but not for wet and heavy soil.
Vigourous old fashioned mop top type, pure white flowers, useful for specimen or border plantings. Strong stemmed upright variety, useful for floral work.
Choice evergreen Iris from Greece and Turkey with blue flowers like Iris reticulata. Our stock plants grow well in a sunny south-facing rockgarden.
A graceful long flowering variety with white centre and light blue petals. Long spurs and more outward facing flower than 'Magpie'.
Mashua. Grown in the Andes for its edible tubers which are best roasted like potatoes or yams. A climbing, shade loving plant which needs a cool site and good drainage.
Rare white form of the usual blue, useful for ground cover in part shade or sun. Vigorous and spreading like the blue form.
Blue grey leaves, sieboldiana cross distinguished by its symmetrically pointed leaves, forms a good clump in shade.
