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 white flowers.
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.
A spreading evergreen perennial. Light green , pointed, oblong leaves are in small clumps to 12cm high, which spread by underground runners to form patches up to 50cm across. Tall erect stems, to 45cm, carrying large (7cm), white, pendant, bell shaped flowers, are borne during Summer. All Campanulas prefer an alkaline soil.
A perennial clumping species, non running, from Europe and Northern Africa and one of the most reliable in warmer climates. Tall, one sided spires of nodding, pure white, bell shaped flowers tower above a clump of soft, roughly textured, narrowly heart shaped, dark green leaves that are deciduous in winter.
Greater visual impact than purple forms, for adding contrast and vibrancy to too soft romantic gardens or as a punctuation against a dark wall or hedge in more formal settings.
Easy in a sheltered but not too shady spot, morning sun would be ideal, with reasonably drained, preferably alkaline, soil where some drying out after flowering will be appreciated.
A large and glorious, long blooming, summer growing annual from southern South America. Forming a stiffly branched open shrub, with large, hairy, palmate leaves and bearing all summer and autumn whorls of pink, purple or white, four petalled flowers with long extending stamens, spidery in effect.
Sow just below the surface in any well drained sunny soil in late winter or early spring while temperatures are still fluctuating but the danger of frost has passed (oscillating temperatures are needed for germination). Alternatively they can be started off in small pots, from which they transplant very well when young.
Will self sow in bare well drained soil.
Each pack contains in excess of 50+ seeds.
An outstanding summer annual from Mexico to South America, bearing large, saucer shaped, daisy flowers in shades of pink and white atop sturdy, feathery leaved, many branched stems, which pick beautifully.
Classic cottage garden, the perfect cure for bedding plant fatigue. Big, blowzy and show stopping.
Scratch seeds into bare sunny soil any time once it has warmed in spring. Early sowings will be the most robust but a late summer sowing will continue flowering well into autumn.
Each pack contains a minimum of 50+ seeds.
An easy to grow Australian orchid bearing an abundance of long lasting, dainty, creamy white, five petalled flowers held in short spikes on the end of long succulent canes each topped with three or four, leathery, elliptic leaves.
This clone has very long, radiating canes and mature specimens can easily exceed one metre in diameter.
Ideal for a hanging basket filled with orchid bark (composted pine bark) or any other very coarse medium or else attach to a rough barked tree or convenient garden boulder.
Keeping the roots constantly moist will ensure failure, it is imperative you allow the roots to dry out between watering and water less in cooler weather. Protection from desiccating wind and midday sun is beneficial otherwise treat it like your cacti.
