  • Potentilla
    • nepalensis ‘Miss Willmott’   CAG00550
      Height30cmWidth40cmFlowering SeasonSp - AuWaterMLightLight Shade
      CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE

      An evergreen, clumping, perennial member of the Rose family. The five divided leaves are carried on slender, red tinged stems. Each leaflet is deeply veined with a serrated margin and the entire plant is softly haired and appears very much like an alpine strawberry. Throughout the warmer months, small, five petalled, rich pink, saucer shaped flowers, with a red centre, are borne singly, just above the foliage.
      A surprisingly tough plant for any well drained, lightly shaded position.
      Cut back whenever tatty for a fresh flush of growth.

      Rehmannia elata ‘Romantic Affair’
      CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE

      A Chinese perennial with flat rosettes of jagged, dark green, red backed, velvety leaves form a dense carpet from which arises slender stems, elegantly bearing large, very showy, nodding, trumpet shaped, yellow throated, pale pink flowers. Very romantic as the name suggests.

      Easily grown in moist, well drained, preferably alkaline soil in a sheltered site and very vigorous when happy.

      Winter dormant.

  • Rhodanthemum
    • gayanum   CAG00558
      Height20cmWidth60cmFlowering SeasonWi / SpWaterMLightFull Sun
      CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE

      A low growing perennial sub-shrub from the mountains of Morocco with finely divided, dark green, glossy foliage that form a low dense mound. During winter and spring bright, baby pink, daisy flowers with burgundy centres are produced en masse.

      A valuable plant for its flowering season.
      Dead head to promote flowers and cut back to strong basal growth annually.

      Easily grown in well drained soil with some summer irrigation. Deep rooted so only temporary in pots.

  • Rosmarinus
    • officinalis ‘Roman Beauty’   CAG02681

      (Rosemary)
      Height25cmWidth60cmFlowering SeasonSp - SuWaterLLightFull Sun
      CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE

      The best prostrate Rosemary I've ever grown. White stems and fine needle like leaves that reveal their white underbelly lend a silvery appearance to a dense and trailing mound forming shrub with flowers of good clear blue-lavender.

      If it has a fault it is that it never grows as quickly as you would like it to.

      Tough and hardy in any reasonably drained soil as per other Rosemary but slow growth and finer form offers potential for container vignettes.

  • Rubus
  • Salvia

    (Sage)
    Lamiaceae

    A genus whose popularity has risen exponentially in recent times. Offering a diverse range of form and colour there is a Salvia for nearly every garden situation with more and more being discovered and described all the time. The count now stands somewhere in excess of 1000, including subspecies, according to The Plant List. They are found on every continent except Antarctica.

    From a gardeners perspective they can not all be treated the same, they come from many different climates after all, but as a rule of thumb can be grouped into winter rainfall and summer rainfall species and with few exceptions they all prefer well drained soil.

    Soft leaved species from Central and South America are usually autumn and winter flowering. Coming from summer rainfall areas they typically need protection from dry heat and the accompanying high light intensity and they vary in their tolerance of winter damp. As with most plants the larger the leaves the more water they require, this also dictates how fast they grow with many growing several metres in a single season.

    Species from south western North America, South Africa, the Mediterranean and the Canary Islands are all winter growers and are tolerant or demanding of dry heat and summer drought. Slower growing but usually longer lived these all tend to have small, densely haired, silver or grey leaves or a combination of these traits which help them conserve moisture. Most of these require no additional water in Perth and are well adapted to our climate. They tend tend to flower from spring into summer.


    Prune back to where vigorous new basal growth is seen, never to dead wood, they appear to store little food in their stems and without leaves stand a chance of starving to death or at least struggle to regenerate. The exception is those few that are tuberous or clump forming, these can be cut to ground level once the stems start dying back in late autumn.
