This beautiful, compact growing Agastache has been bred for better branching and a greater tolerance to humidity. It's a shame they could not come up with a better name.

Looks good en masse. Also can be planted as a feature pot plant on a balcony. 50cm x 30cm.

We've had a long association with this lovely little coreopsis. In 1994 I bought a book called 'Bold romantic Gardens' by Wolfgang Oehme and James van Sweden where Coreopsis 'Moonbeam' featured in this horticultural masterpiece. Since this time we have always made room to grow this ever popular perennial. Bright star like lemon yellow flowers are held above airy clumps of fine-needle like foliage. It brings a fine textured contrast to the landscape. Unlike other Coreopsis it doesn't self-seed and is a long lived perennial. Perfect in a pot as well as in the ground amongst grasses and sedums. Approx. 40cm high x 40cm wide.

This Coneflower is a high impact perennial. As the name may suggest it has been bred to produce upright well branched stems that result in more flowers per plant.

Prefers well drained average soils in full sun.

Through the extreme heat and drought conditions of last Summer this Helenium grew well in our clay based composted growing beds with no irrigation. The resulting mass of stunning flowers ablaze in burgundy red and mahogany were soothing to our soul. Synonymous with 'Dark Beauty' it grows to 80cm x 60cm wide and tolerates most soil types except asphyxiating clays. Does best in full sun with good Winter drainage. The addition of organic matter to the soil will encourage growth and larger flower heads.
