This lovely cottage garden plant has spikes of purple-eyed white flowers that shoot up from glossy dark evergreen foliage. Flowers emerge from early summer and bloom right the way until early autumn. This plant is a biennial, so avoid cutting back spent flowers to allow them to self-seed.

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.

Unique looking spiky cones of cream-coloured flowers appear in early spring. Suitable for large pots and garden borders or gravel gardens.

This evergreen perennial stands out because of it’s unusual look with its sturdy flower stems that are covered in whorls of pale yellow hooded flowers. After flowering these turn into architectural seedheads that give interest to your border in the bleak winter months and offer shelter for small insects.
