Geum ‘Gimlet’
£4.50
Geum ‘Gimlet’ has the softest, primrose yellow,semi double flowers. It is happy in full sun or semi shade, in fact it grows well in full shade but doesn’t produce as many flowers, but the foliage looks fab! A damp site is where it is really at home( damp but not completely soggy boggy!) and will bulk up into a good clump within a season. Although it’s main flowering flush is in the spring if it is dead headed it will often come back into flower and treat you to more blooms in August – September.Geum Gimlet is a great addition to the perennial border, giving you flowers almost all summer.

Agapanthus ‘Blue Ice’
Not the hardiest of Agapanthus but well worth the effort of planting in a pot and bringing in for a little Winter protection ( which is what we have to do here!) or in milder areas it can be planted out and protected with fleece or mulch. A classy, cool customer with large flowers that are blue/mauve at the base changing to palest blue then white at the tips of each petal.These plants are supplied in 1ltr pots.
Tricyrtis formosana ‘ Dark beauty’
Tricyrtis formosana 'Dark beauty' has almost black buds that open in September to reveal exquisite white maroon spotted flowers. Held on strong stems that don't need staking that are clothed in spotted leaves. It is best to plant with a little shelter, but formosana is probobly the easiest form to grow.Plants are supplied bare root in Winter and early spring and in 1.5ltr pots from May till December.
Iris Ensata ‘Queen’s tiara’
Iris Ensata 'Queens tiara' likes a real soggy place to grow, at the edge of a pond or stream would be it's first choice, but it will perform well in the border as long as it doesn't dry out . Full sun will give you the best flowers, and a nice clump will have built up within 3yrs.
