A bushy plant with many branched stems topped with dark yellow black centered cone flowers. The foliage is a dark glossy green similar in appearance to heliopsis and echinaceas. Flowers from mid-summer into autumn.
Attractive and eye-catching bi-coloured cultivar with white and red flowers; probably a S. greggii hybrid. Compact and tidy for most of the year.
Hand pollinated seedlings from our best double purple plants. Strain includes 'Dido' and 'Betty Ranicar'.
Traditional hedging plant which looks good all year round and forms compact tight growth. Ideal for edging pathways, borders and formal plantings.
Tall wand like stems, topped with pink bells, a lovely waterside plant, or well situated where it has some space around it so its form can be appreciated. Cut back occasionally.
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.
Somewhat rampant if treated too well but extremely useful for colonising dry shady areas where not much else will grow. Makes an attractive weed-smothering clump of glossy foliage followed by plentiful lime-green flowers in late winter.
Shade loving variety with delicate soft pink flowers in summer. Use as background planting to hostas and hellebores for summer display.
One of the best deciduous geraniums with rich purple violet flowers and large palmate foliage,very long lived and forms a good sized 60cm across clump. Loves fertility and prefers heavier soil type, not in pots. Flowers in summer, after the early season geraniums.
Himalayan species, with attractive pink stems & foliage. The lime green flowers form an interesting contrast.
Dome-forming clumper for the rockgarden or border, flowering profusely during summer with mounds of purple bells. Non-invasive and generally tidy when not in flower. Dislikes acid soil.
Evergreen mounding grass with delightful seedheads in autumn, will not self seed like many native grasses do. Lovely with sedums and miscanthus.
Soft lemon yellow columbine, long spurs. Spring flowering and easy to grow like other varieties.
Sweetly fragrant variety with pink feathered flowers and silver cushion forming foliage.
