Unique looking spiky cones of cream-coloured flowers appear in early spring. Suitable for large pots and garden borders or gravel gardens.
Cobalt blue flowers that resemble butterflies emerge in summer and last all the way into autumn. The plants can cope with light frosts but might need extra protection during extreme cold temperatures. Cut back in late summer to encourage a second flush in autumn and then trim the following year in spring to strenghten new growth.
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.
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.
Tall blue flower spikes sit on a bed of yellow-green scented foliage. The flower spikes can reach up to 90cm and attract pollinators with their sweet fragrance. Flowers appear in mid-summer which makes thnis plant perfect for adding colour to your garden for later in the season. Agastache can be planted in containers for the first season and then be planted into your garden border for the following seasons.
This clump-forming perennial with grey-green leaves bears small nodding red flowers from early summer that turn into extraordinary feathery seedheads. The foliage turns red in autumn which add interest later in the season. Geum Triflorum grows well in dry, free-draining soil and is drought-tolerant once established.
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.

I haven?¦t checked in here for some time since I thought it was getting boring, but the last few posts are great quality so I guess I will add you back to my daily bloglist. You deserve it my friend 🙂

There are certainly a variety of details like that to take into consideration. That may be a great point to convey up. I offer the ideas above as common inspiration but clearly there are questions just like the one you bring up where a very powerful thing will probably be working in trustworthy good faith. I don?t know if greatest practices have emerged around things like that, but I am sure that your job is clearly recognized as a good game. Both boys and girls really feel the impression of only a second’s pleasure, for the rest of their lives.
