Penstemon 'Garnet'
This is a very long flowering plant (from now until the end of autumn).
The deep pink tubular flowers are born along lush green foliage 60-90 cm
tall. They help towards producing that full frothy look of the English summer
border, and as they are evergreen they have the added advantage of giving
you some interest in the winter. The only care they need is to be cut back
hard in the early spring.
Pulmonaria 'Lewis Palmer'
My Plant of the month for March, I thought you might be interested in seeing
what it looks like from summer through to the autumn. As you can see the
gloriously spotty leaves are a joy and create a great backdrop for other
plants. Astrantia major 'Sunningdale Variegated'
With it's variegated palmate leaves, this plant is good value even before
it flowers. The flowers are amongst the most delicate I know in white, pink
and a touch of the palest green. Return to the home page.
