    Buy 1 for $14.00 / Buy 5 for $60.00

    Very similar to Lepechinia hastata, except the flowering period is earlier in Summer-Autumn (instead of Autumn-Winter), plus Lepechinia salviae is a little more compact in form. Blue green arrow shaped leaves on a plant that reaches 1m tall. It behaves very similarly to herbaceous salvias. The foliage is pleasantly aromatic, reminiscent of mild disinfectant. The flowers are magenta in colour, however in combination with the calyx and flower stem they have an overall smokey hue to the magenta. Drought tolerant once established.

    Growing up in South Africa, Melianthus major gives many childhood memories. The peanut butter fragrance of the leaves, the unusual blue green serrated foliage, and the large copper chains of fragrant flowers are all distinguishing features. It grew in many of the gardens in my neighbourhood. As a plant, Melianthus major really impresses. It is very low in maintenance requirements and unpruned reaches 2.5m. A bold statement in the garden and certainly handsome. Iron tough!

    Persicaria amplexicaulis 'White Eastfield'

    Buy 1 for $14.00/ Buy 5 for $60.00

    One of many fabulous Persicarias bred by Belgian Landscape Architect, Chris Ghyselen. Only recently have Persicaria been used widely in garden planting. Their increase in popularity due in part to the influence of Piet Oudolf. The great array of colours and forms available is due to Chris Ghyselen's passion for the development of new cultivars.
    Persicarias are fantastic plants to incorporate into the garden. We grow them in amongst Rudbeckia, Sanguisorbia, Helenium, Miscanthus, Panicum and Pennisetum. The soil in these beds is enriched with compost, is moisture retentive and heavily mulched.
    'White Eastfield' is a shorter variety that reaches 90cm high and has dark green leaves which are narrow and pointed. Numerous spikes of white slightly drooping flowers appear in Summer and continue until early Winter. 90cm x 90cm.
