Ceanothus “Blue sapphire”

Ceanothus “Blue sapphire” is an evergreen shrub with small, very dark green leaves and strong dark blue flowers held on arching stems. It makes an excellent shrub for a large container as it can cope with dry conditions and it’s spreading shape looks impressive when it hangs over the edge of a pot or wall. The young foliage is almost bronze it’s so dark, making it an excellent background for the rich blue flowers.
Plants are supplied in a 1.5 ltr pot.

Jasminum beesianum
Jasminum beesianum has striking deep pink flowers, they have a light scent , but this Jasmine is all about the looks! Although Jasmines are not the hardiest of climbers, I have grown Jasminum Beesianum against a wall here for over 20yrs and we are cold at over 600ft , given a warmer spot it can reach 4-5mts in height. This twining climber is perfect for arches, pergolas or scrambling through trees. Initial support will be needed.

Fuchsia microphylla
Fuchsia microphylla is one of the most rewarding hardy fuchsias to grow, when it is in full flower although the blooms are small the whole bush is covered in them creating almost a magenta cloud! Although I am assured it can get taller here, it rarely gets taller than 1mtr in warmer areas it would grow from the hard wood frame but here we cut it back to 20cms in the spring and off it goes shooting up to 1mtr. Still flowering here well into November if we haven't had a frost!
Plants are supplied in a 9cm pot.
Lemon Verbena , Lippia Citriodora .
Lemon Verbena, Lippia Citriodora has the most lemony scent of all plants, it almost smells like lemon sherbet ( if only there was a scratch and sniff feature on your screen!). Half hardy it is best grown against a wall or in a pot placed near the house, or if you're in a wet ,cold area bring it in to an unheated greenhouse or polytunnel for the Winter, prune it back in winter/ early Spring to keep it tidy. Use Lemon Verbena in herb tea, stuffings, pot pourri, cakes or just brush your hand across it as you walk past and let it fill the air with it's incredible scent!
