Veronicastrum Virginicum ‘Fascination’
£4.95
Veronicastrum Virginicum ‘Fascination’ is a majestic TALL! plant thats looks impressive at the back of a border or mixed into a prairie planting scheme. It has stiff stems that in all but the most exposed sites don’t need staking, it can be Chelsea chopped in May to give a shorter slightly later flowering plant, lilac flowers appear in July and are a welcome source of nectar for bees and butterflies. Native to North America, Veronicastrum Virginicum is a tough plant happy in most soils that don’t dry out, if you’ve got enough to spare it also makes an excellent cut flower!
Plants are supplied in a 1.5ltr pot( and will be cut back during the growing season)

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.
Plants are supplied bare root from December - March , April onwards in a 2ltr pot and will be cut back for dispatch.
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 - bare root Oct - March . 1.5ltr pot - March onwards.
PRIMULA ALPICOLA 9cm
This elegant and delicate looking primula is tougher than it looks! it has the most fantastic scent and is happy in damp places in Sun or shade. Native to the eastern Himalayas where it grows in shady bogs and alpine meadows it has adapted well to our British climate making it a great addition to the border or pond side, where it will form a good sized clump that can be divided after flowering. Flowers are mixed either in a shades of mauve or cream to white. ( also available in a 1.5ltr pot see other listing)
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.
