Clump-forming herbaceous perennial with pea-like white and lilac flowers that appear from mid summer. The plant tolerates poor soil and partial shade, but will grow more vigorously in full sun.
This native wildflower bears large white or pink flowers with a purple lower lip that sit on honey-scented foliage traditionally used in “Maybowl” beverages and retaining its fragrance once it’s dried. Melittis Melissophyllum is a very tough plant and can survive long periods of summer drought once it’s established.
Unique looking spiky cones of cream-coloured flowers appear in early spring. Suitable for large pots and garden borders or gravel gardens.
This Aster variety is a strong perennial for your garden with large soft lilac daisy-like flowers with a bright yellow center. Flowers emerge in early summer right until late autumn and are longlasting as a cut flower.
Eryngiums are very robust plants that grow well in full sun and can be tolerant to drought. The plants bear spikey cone-shaped flowerheads in blue and silver-grey tones. Spent flowerheads give winter interest to your border, so don’t cut them back straight away.
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.
This deciduous perennial can grow up to 1m tall and attracts butterflies, which is why it’s also called butterfly weed. Clusters of flat bright-orange flowers in midsummer are followed by long seedpods.
