  • Buddleja
    • davidii ‘Black Knight’   CAG00141
      Height3mWidth2mFlowering SeasonSp - AuWaterM - LLightSun
      CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE

      A hardy, quick growing, evergreen, butterfly attracting shrub, with pairs of white backed, lance shaped leaves clothing the woody stems. Dense, conical sprays of small, tubular, four petalled flowers of the deepest blue purple.
      Trim lightly after each flush of flowers or it can be pruned back to ground level while in active growth to encourage vigorous new basal shoots.

      One of the choicer cultivars.

      A hardy, quick growing, evergreen, butterfly attracting shrub, with pairs of white backed, lance shaped leaves clothing the woody stems. Dense, conical sprays of small, tubular, four petalled flowers of an unusual wine red shade.

      Trim lightly after each flush of flowers or it can be pruned back to ground level while in active growth to encourage vigorous new basal shoots.

      As close to red as a Buddleja gets. One of my favourites.

      An excellent Buddleja most valued for it's winter flowering season.

  • Cistus
    • creticus   CAG01562

      (Hoary rock rose)
      Height1mWidth1mFlowering SeasonSpringWaterLLightFull Sun
      CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE

      A dome-like shrub of stiffly upright stems clothed in small, crinkly grey edged, broadly lance shaped leaves and bearing 5cm soft pink five petalled flowers that appear to be in need of a good ironing.

      Texturally very different to more laterally branched varieties of Cistus and with a more rigid feel that contrasts well with the softness of many mediterranean furries.

      From the eastern Mediterranean and easily grown in any well drained sunny soil, probably best to avoid summer irrigation but a drink or two in spring and autumn may be appreciated.

    • crispus   CAG00846
      Height40cmWidth1mFlowering SeasonSpringWaterLLightFull Sun
      CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE

      A ground hugger densely clothed with elliptical, grey-green, velvety leaves and smothering in cerise coloured flowers with five lightly creped petals. From the south western Mediterranean basin.

      An extremely useful growth habit with a more solid and definitive form than the similarly scaled C. x skanbergii. Plant with other low growing quintessential Mediterraneans, Nepeta, Origanum, Lavandula, Ballota, Santolina for a stunning and indulgently texture rich garden, you could even add other Cistus, especially C. creticus with its similar flowers but distinctly different growth.

      For any well drained sunny soil, summer irrigation optional.

  • Coreopsis
    • gigantea   CAG02279
      Height1.5mWidth60cmFlowering SeasonSpringWaterLLightFull Sun
      Coreopsis gigantea
      CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE

      A summer deciduous species from the southern Californian seaside with lush mops of bright green, feathery foliage atop thick, grey, branching trunks. Somewhat palm-like and very succulent looking, growing more so with age. Large, simple, canary yellow, daisy flowers explode on long stems from short, annual, side spurs.

      Easy to grow in very well drained soil, or gutless sand, and an excellent pot subject. Plenty of sun while in growth is essential and its summer dormancy must be respected, though some moisture is required to mimic the regular fog of its native haunts.

      The cusp of an irrigated garden or somewhere convenient for occasional hand watering could see a grove of these make an uncommon spectacle with little care, underplant with Cyclamen graecum and C. persicum for a planting that cool climate gardeners can only fantasise about.

      Frost sensitive. East coast hardiness questionable.

  • Crotalaria
    • semperflorens   CAG00795
      Height4mWidth2mFlowering SeasonWinterWaterMLightSun
      Crotalaria semperflorens
      CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE

      An ultra fast growing, tree-like, leguminous shrub with large, softly hairy, elliptical leaves bearing dense spikes of sweetly perfumed, bright yellow, 3cm, pea-like flowers in early winter, which are followed by large inflated seed pods that explode loudly during warm spring days.

      Reaches full size of 3-4m within 2 years, with an expected lifespan of 3-4 years.

      Self seeds freely, which is handy as you look forward to it's spectacular display each year.

      Must be planted as a seedling. Seedling stage lasts only a few weeks so is rarely offered.
