Climbing Tasmanian clematis with simple, white flowers. Dense, bushy growth and attractive olive green occasionally purple foliage. Responds well to pruning.
The best red cultivar with a hint of black spotting in the centre of the flower. Tall erect flower stems. Avoid growing oriental poppies in pots, plant in ground directly.
A wild Paeonia from the Caucasus from Ukraine to Romania with deep tomato red flowers and finely dissected foliage. This is a dwarf species which prefers fertile but drained conditions, and needs to dry off in summer after the growing period. A rare treasure.
Our own double purple which we have increased from division. Best in well drained conditions in a pot or the rock garden.
Classic white hellebore for mass planting under trees and shrubs, ensure good soil and plenty of mulch, remove old leaves in summer to promote winter growth.
Commonly known as "Solomon"s Seal", a clumping perennial with attractive foliage and white flowers for shade or part sun.
A terrific Dahlia with massive blooms and a subtle faded soft pink colour like old roses. Only a few in stock.
Remarkable double white parma violet, sweetly perfumed and delicious. Plant as ground cover in shade under trees, combine with helleborus, anemone, dicentra, and epimedium. Similar to 'Swanley White' but as we have collected these from different sources we have listed separately.
Burnt orange 'Kangaroo Paw', easily grown in dry soil types, preferring good drainage.
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.
Drought hardy silver foliage plant for topiary and background, use in place of Italian lavenders which are disappointing and die out after a few years. Attractive blue flowers, drought tolerant.
Low growing silvery grey foliage variety which is evergreen in mild climates, long lived and drought hardy, useful in mediterranean gardens with gaura, rosmary and wallflowers.
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.
A nice addition to the summer flowering pallette, this persicaria has a softer colour than 'Taurus' with similar good qualities of long flowering and good foliage and infill. Best on heavier fertile soils.
Compact non-invasive clumping perennial with tall white flowers and grey green foliage. Like other lysimachia, these prefer fertile moisture retentive, clay based soils.
