Data sheet
Our own breeding from Astrantia 'Hadspen Blood' ,very dark ruby red flowers. Astrantia, although tough once established, love moist clay loam soils and plenty of fertility to give their best. Division grown.
Huge ornamental rhubarb from Brazil, suited to pond, bog, and streamside plantings. The leaves can be 1.5 - 2.5 m across, on stems up to 2.5 m in sheltered conditions.
Lemon thyme, great for savoury meat dishes and marinades, also a long flowering ornamental garden plant. Larger than most ground-covering types, it forms a 30 cm mound and flowers well in summer even in dry conditions. Ideal for mass planting amongst stones with paeonies and crocus. Pink flowers.
One of the first perennials my mother gave me, a delightful old fashioned ground cover for under roses, where it will remain well behaved forever, or until overgrown by an invasive neighbour. Easily revived and transplanted however, and not to be confused with 'Claridge Druce' or other inferior Geranium oxonianum hybrids.
Paniculata type with white flowers and pink eye, fragrant and grows well with plenty of summer water and nutrients. Not for low maintenance gardens!
Grey blue low growing grass with weeping foliage, used for landscaping applications in mass plantings, edgings, or combined with euphobias, westringia and sedums.
Mounding grey foliage plant resembling ballota, useful for larger coastal gardens where it forms an effective ground cover with westringea, correa, prostrate rosmary and native grasses. Can also be grown as a low hedge if planted 80cm apart.
Bushy plant with tons of closely packed white single flowers. Reddish buds before the flowers emerge creates a wonderful effect in early summer.
A lovely old double pink auricula which we have increased from division. Best in well drained conditions in a pot or the rock garden.
Woolly thyme, useful as a lawn thyme or amongst stones in a rockery or gravel garden. Tight compact habit and pink flowers. Dry tolerant.
More sun tolerant than other hydrangea varieties, but adaptable to part shade also. Beautiful deciduous variety with densely clustered white panicles in summer. Lovely feature plant behind perennials with deciduous viburnums, or grouped in woodland settings.
Red form of Pulsatilla vulgaris, requires good drainage like other varieties, best for rock garden.
Botanical rarity seldom seen in Australian gardens, native to Chile. Bright magenta poppy-like flowers on long graceful stems that move beautifully in a light breeze. Mid-green diamond shaped leaves form a good mound of evergreen foliagel, which works well as a focal point in succulent groupings and rock garden plantings. Best in drier drained soils,...
Attractive alpine from California favouring rock crevices dry sunny conditions. Protect from excessive winter wet, ideal in a drystone wall. Colour range from pink, white to apricot.
A striking cut flower and useful mid summer texture plant between grasses, asters, echinacea, heleniums and sedums. Easy to cultivate, most effective in multiple 25cm spaced group plantings of 3, 5, 7 and upward for maximum impact.
