Galega officinalis / Goat’s Rue

This herbaceous perennial grows up to 90cm tall and has very delicate blue cornflower-like flowers that grow continuously from early to late summer. The flowers grow on a long thin stem with neat grass-like leaves. For a better display, we recommend planting a minimum of three plants close together to make up for the sparse foliage.

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.

Cone-shaped feathery red-purple flowers sit on green clover-like leaves. Like all clover variety this one is great for attracting many different pollinators, perfect for a wildlife-friendly garden. Ideal for underplanting shrubs or roses. Cutting back spent blooms may encourage a second flush.
