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.
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.
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.
The flat flower heads of Achilleas are great for insects to land on and attract many pollinators, especially hoverflies. This variety is best grown in full sun and well-draining soil and looks great in the middle of a garden border. Division every three to five years will rejuvinate the plant.
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.
