Sauromatum ( Typhonium) venosum
£3.95
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.

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.
