Galega officinalis / Goat’s Rue

This herbaceous perennial grows up to 1.2m tall and bears red daisy-like flowers that turn copper over timeand sit on dark purple foliage. Very good long-lasting cut flower.

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.

Caryopteris is a small deciduous shrub with aromatic grey-green leaves and delicate blue flowers that starts blooming in late summer which makes it ideal for adding colour to the garden later in the season. We recommend planting Caryopteris into patio containers when still small and then into your garden border once it has outgrown the container. Once the plant has established it is very tolerant to drought.
