Stokesia 'Omega Sky Rocket' has flower stems that reach 90cm in height with wonderful pale blue cornflower like inflorescence. 'Omega Sky Rocket' has a green rosette of waxy leaves for most of the year. In late Spring and Summer the tallest of all Stokesia flowers emerge.

Bred in the Netherlands 'Mel's Blue' is a superior form of Stokes Aster. It has an upright habit making the blooms very visible. Periwinkle blue flowers with a hint of purple cover the plant in late Summer to Autumn. 45-60cm tall. 'Mel's Blue' handles most conditions but must have good drainage. Great in containers but equally as good in garden conditions. Combines well with Andropogon, Lavender and Sedum.

Tulbaghia 'John May Special'
$13.00
Visit product page →Buy 1 for $13.00/ Buy 5 for $55.00
The biggest plant and the biggest flowers in the world of 'Society Garlics'. Really strong growth on a high performance plant. Grey-green strappy foliage to 60cm which is topped with mauve pink heads of Agapanthus style flowers. So good we prefer this plant to regular Tulbaghia violaceae which has been a mainstay in our plant stocks for over a decade.
