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.

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.
