Sauromatum ( Typhonium) venosum
£4.95
Sauromatum venosum / Typhonium venosum produces an amazing flower in early spring before the leaves emerge, the interior of the spath looks like cream velvet spotted with dark maroon, it looks fab but smells bad! luckily it only lasts for a couple of days. The main attraction with this plant is really the incredibly snakeskin marked stems that hold a semicircle of bold green leaves. It likes to be well drained and in a shady spot out of cold winds, it’s great for giving your garden a tropical feel!
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.

Filipendula Rubra ‘Venusta’
Filipendula rubra 'Venusta' is a big , bold plant that likes a damp site in sun or shade. It's flower buds are deep pink, almost red and open to reveal frothy sprays of dark pink blooms. The stems are strong no staking is needed, no disease problems either and ..... they're slug proof too! They look great at the back of a border or at a pond edge where they will form a strong clump that can be divided in the winter.

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.
