Data sheet
Double peachy pink carnation with full large flowers on medium stems. Fragrant and long lasting in the garden.
Soft primrose yellow flowers, a seldom seen variety with subtle colour. Plant with snowdrops and spring bulbs.
Summer flowering perennial with brightly coloured red and yellow flowers. Extremely tough, long lasting and dry tolerant once established, likes regular clay loam or regular garden soils, doesnt like sandy soil. Combines well in meadow garden plantings amongst grasses and perennials.
Tall spiky plant with silver spherical heads. Great for flower arrangements and texture in the summer border. Best with morning sun only and enough water during summer.
Choice evergreen Iris from Greece and Turkey with blue flowers like Iris reticulata. Our stock plants grow well in a sunny south-facing rockgarden.
Lower growing to waist high with soft foliage and improved autumn colour, one of the better panicums. A nicely clumping contained grass that looks good in groups amongst echinacea and summer perennials, wont self seed and lasts a long time. However needs decent fertile soil to flourish.
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.
Two toned gold and lime green green leaf that darkens as the season progresses. Attractive contrast with other varieties.
A long stemmed form suitable for picking. Violet blue flowers in winter and early spring.
Begins salmon pink then transitions to soft ochre as the flowers age, lovely amongst roses and salvias. Like all yarrows, cut down after flowering to renew.
A very late flowering variety with tall wiry stems and in its early stages an interesting tight flower bud, providing a similar effect to craspedia globosa. Attractive low basal foliage, and a sculptural interesting plant for late summer groupings.
Superb purple foliage plant for warmer areas. Combine with heleniums, echinaceas and rudbeckias.
A vigorous tall late summer flowering variety that never disappoints in its florferous abundance, provides good fill and the blue looks great with autumn grasses, sedums and rudbeckia.
One of the first plants I grew from cutting; quick growing and floriferous in a short space of time. In summer it requires complete cutting to the ground like an oriental poppy, and will resprout in autumn when there is sufficient moisture. Easy and quick to fill in spaces; pink flowers.
Cascades of beautiful silvery plumes in autumn. Vigorous and clump forming. Allow space to show off its best qualities. Combines well with Perovskia and Stipa arundinacea.
Early summer flowering perennial for border and rock garden, ideal with dianthus, scleranthus and other cushion forming plants. White flowers.
