Data sheet
Grey foliage mat forming ground cover, with tiny yellow button flowers in summer. Best in open sunny situation.
Easily grown in sun or part shade, the "Lady"s Mantle" is a lovely old fashioned plant for between roses, or for the herbaceous border. Cut back lightly after flowering to promote new foliage.
A pretty species which grows well in the garden. Reddish pink flared bells on 140 cm stems, native to the eastern Drakensberg region, where it is said to cover complete hillsides.
Deep pink hydrangea, flatter lacecap type like 'Tokyo Delight'; note pink varieties are less affected by soil pH than blue varieties.
Unusual Aconitum with glossy attractive foliage and pale lemon flowers on upright stems. Clump forming and easy in shade.
A mound-forming sub alpine species with sweetly fragrant soft pink flowers. Useful amongst gravel and stones, petite compact form.
The deep orange pokers appear in mid summer with gaillardias, heleniums and rudbeckias. A shorter manageable variety that forms an evergreen mound of foliage. Easy to grow on most soil types.
White flowers suffused with the palest lilac, darkest at the tips. Tall stems great for flower arranging. Amongst my current favourites.
Milky white rosette forming variety with pink flowers, attractive in clusters amongst Senecio serpens, sempervivums, and low growing sedums. A good variety for green roofs or amongst masonry.
Native to Japan, a lower growing variety with attractive lobed leaves and pink bottlebrush flowers. In Australia part shade is best, on fertile clay or moisture retentive soil.
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.
Similar in appearance, but a better all round garden plant than Geranium 'Pink Spice'; most useful as ground cover between roses and amongst taller perennials. Pewter purple grey leaves and pink flowers; vigorous like 'Mavis Simpson'. One of the best varieties.
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.
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.
Black mondo grass. Popular for its glossy black foliage and evergreen carpeting effect. Easily grown but slower in cold climates.
White lace cap variety, flatter flowers with lilac centre buds; stable colour and lovely.
Native to Spain, Portugal and Morocco, a spectacular tall grass with attractive seed heads in autumn. Takes a few years to achieve maturity but well worth the wait.
