Aster

Oversized lavender-coloured feathery flowers with a sweet scent that grow tall over grey-green foliage. The plant flowers all throughout summer and early autumn. The flowers are great for cutting or drying. We don’t recommend feeding these flowers, because this would encourge leaf growth instead of flowers.

Gaillardia “Arizona Apricot” is a compact perennial that grows up to 30cm high and bears large, daisy-like flowers in shades of orange and apricot from early summer. This plant can cope well in drought.

Low-growing perennial variety with hairy dark green leaves and delicate blue bell-shaped flowers from early summer to late autumn. Just like annual Borage, the flowers of this perennial veriety are very useful for all pollinators as they refill with nectar within only two mintues after a bee has visited. Ideal for difficult areas in the garden like dry shady spots. The flowers are edible and can be added to salads or frozen in ice cubes to decorate delicious summer drinks.
