Flowers have luminous golden yellow centres surrounded by a skirt of wide pure white petals. The compact habit lends itself to planting en masse as well as container culture. 60cm tall x 40cm wide.

Blue Globe Thistle is a fabulous looking plant. Late Summer and early Autumn it produces prickly blue balls that stand well above the foliage. Combines well with ornamental grasses, Achillea, Agastache and Salvia. Also provides a great contrast to clipped silver foliage shrubs like Helichrysum, Santolina and Teucrium.
Drainage is the key. Our gravel garden provides excellent drainage where the plants reach full size (1.2m). We previously had them in soil with a high clay content where the plants were stunted and lacked good flowering.

Attractive mid green basal rosettes which are the main structure of the plant for most of the year. The flowers arise to 80cm above the basal rosette in late Spring and Summer. Globular heads of snowy white, tinged with a hint of metallic blue make for a floral statement amongst any plant combination. We like to leave the dead heads on the plants after flowering. This way we ensure a little self-seeding in and around original plant increasing our clump size. Somewhat drought tolerant once established. 20cm x 80cm in flower. Prefers well drained soils and full sun.

Commonly known as "Rattlesnake Master". A fantastic common name. Thin, slightly spiny, glaucous foliage gives rise to silver white thistle like flowers to around 1m in height. Prefers a free draining sunny position. Tolerates dry and gravelly poorer soils. Our boundary garden contains many of these Eryngiums as we love the architectural contrast. Grows well with Rudbeckia, Echinacea, Sedums and Ornamental Grasses. Also makes a wonderful cut flower.

We don't generally have Fuchsias in our collection but have made an exception here. This is a remarkable Fuchsia, as the foliage itself provides ample interest - an elixir for anyone who has an interest in variegated foliage. Brilliant in hanging baskets or containers, contrasting with the foliage of most other plants. Also makes a show in partially shaded gardens 'Tom West' is a very old variety but carries forward much appeal.
