A spectacular iris with indigo flowers and black stems. Medium height and easy to grow in most conditions providing the soil is not too dry.
One of the best achillea for foliage structure, the flowers are at their best pre colouring when the combination of grey flower buds and silvery foliage provide a lovely texture amongst summer perennials.
A very popular "Pacific Giant" strain with deep inky blue flowers. Easily grown on good soil in sun.
Taller salvia for background plantings with pleasant sky blue flowers. Dislikes winter wet, preferring drainage for best cultivation.
One of the tightest rosette forming varieties with blue-grey leaves and deep crimson tips. Plant in pots or between rocks.
Spectacular clumping Iris for pond sides and moisture retentive soils, big blue flowers in summer. For grouped plantings plant 20-25cm apart for best results.
Old fashioned perennial flowering in summer, with cobalt blue spikes and ground covering habit. Easy amongst geraniums, Dianthus, and helianthemums.
Tall growing ornamental grass, with attractive dark green foliage and feathery seedheads in summer.
The silvery foliage in combination with the abundant single soft pink flowers creates a lovely effect. Like a wild rose but much easier to look after and without the thorns.
Mounding grey foliage plant resembling ballota, useful for larger coastal gardens where it forms an effective ground cover with westringea, correa, prostrate rosmary and native grasses. Can also be grown as a low hedge if planted 80cm apart.
Improved form with wider leaf blades than the species and larger inflorescence. A beautiful plant for larger spaces.
Improved strain from Germany with multiple stems and darker blue flowers than the species. Good for cutting and drying.
We were delighted with this very soft pink variation, in the colour range of Cyclamen libanoticum. Equally as tough as other varieties.
Burnt orange 'Kangaroo Paw', easily grown in dry soil types, preferring good drainage.
Delicious plum purple colour, mass plant in autumn with iris, delphiniums and Canterbury Bells for spring flowering.
Remarkable double white parma violet, sweetly perfumed and delicious. Plant as ground cover in shade under trees, combine with helleborus, anemone, dicentra, and epimedium. Similar to 'Swanley White' but as we have collected these from different sources we have listed separately.
