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!
Plants are supplied in 1ltr pots
Sambucus nigra ‘Black beauty’
Best sited in full sun to get the best dark foliage from this reliable sturdy shrub, the dark burgundy almost black leaves make an excellent background for the pink and white flowers that open from dark red buds in May. Dark purple berries follow that are edible ( we use our to make wine!) but if you're not ready to harvest them for your own use the birds will gladly help you out as they love them. Although it will grow to 3mts in height it can be kept to about 1.2mts if you prune it back to about 60cms each winter , keeping it's shape more compact.
Plants are supplied in a 2ltr pot and may be pruned back for dispatch.
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.
Plants are supplied in a 9 cm pot and will be cut back for dispatch.
Trachelospurmum Jasminoides Wilsonii
Trachelospurmum jasminoides Wilsonii's evergreen leaves turn from green flushed maroon to bright red in the winter. A twining climber, it is best planted in a sheltered site in full sun, or near a path where it's scented, white, star jasmine flowers can really be appreciated especially in the evenings when their scent is strongest.
Plants are supplied in a 2ltr pot.
