Dicentra Spectabilis ‘Valentine’ (Lamprocapnos spectabilis ‘Valentine)
Dicentra Spectabilis 'Valentine' ( lamprocapnos spectabilis 'Valentine') has fabulous dark red stems that hold arches of red and white hearts over ferny green foliage that emerges dark red. It is fully hardy and suited to most areas of the garden that have a little shelter from really strong winds, oh and yes it's also slug proof!
Plants are supplied in a 9cm pot.
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.
Plants are supplied in a 1.5ltr pot.
Dicentra Spectabalis Alba ( Lamprocapnos spectabalis Alba)
Dicentra Spectabalis Alba / Lamprocapnos spectabalis alba is a hardy perennial that flowers early in the Spring, it's fresh, light green ferny foliage appears in early April or earlier if you're in a sheltered area. The arching rows of white hearts are well in flower by mid April and last until July, Although Dicentra spectabalis Alba is fantastic in the shade where it's white hearts glisten from the gloom, I have grown it in full sun here in damp west Wales and it has been very happy! Although this is a tough plant it does tend to have brittle stems that aren't suited to a very exposed , windy site, but most average garden conditions suit it and it will reward you with a good sized clump.
Plants are supplied bare root October - April.
1.5/2ltr pots May - September ( Plants will be cut back May onwards to avoid basal damage to brittle stems)
Schizostylus coccinea ‘major’
Schizostylis coccinea 'Major' brings a burst of colour late in the season when everything else is thinking of of going to bed for the Winter! It is happy in average growing conditions but doesn't like to dry out too much in the Summer, but neither does it like too much wet in the Winter, this makes it sound as if it's fussy but it's really a very easy plant that grows well here in Wales even with our somewhat soggy Winters. It will form a good sized clump eventually at least 60cms or more wide that can be divided preferably in Spring , although I have divided Schizostylis all through the seasons and it's never let me down.
Plants are supplied in a 9cm pot.
