Tall, sugary-pink candles of flowers in summer, loved by insects. Useful mid-border in sun.

SANGUISORBA tenuifolia var. parviflora
Similar to 'Alba' but with more attractive foliage.

SOLIDAGO 'Foxbrook Fountain'
From John Williams. Statuesque, tall and tidy, its golden-yellow flowers are closely clumped and outward-facing at the top of thick stems. Suspend your prejudices, this golden rod is wonderful!
2.00m £5.00
PHLOX paniculata 'Ending Blue'
Lilac-pink flowers in daylight, but change to soft purple-violet in the evening. Fragrant too!
1.00m £5.00
SANGUISORBA 'Pink Tanna'
Light pink bobble flowers from June-August, above a clump of slender branching stems. Prefers moist soil in a sunny spot.

SALVIA verticillata 'Purple Rain'
One of Piet Oudolf's favourites! Dark green leaves, and upright, purple branching stems carry purple-blue flowers through summer. Full sun.

SYMPHYOTRICHUM 'Orchidee'
Masses of small white daisies September-October. Mildew-free. I think this is an HPS conservation plant.

Masses of red bobble flowers on slender stems through summer. Sun.
1.20m £5.00
ASTRANTIA 'Mrs MacGregor'
From Elizabeth MacGregor, previously named 'Old Warwickshire Pink', but the National Collection Holder says this is the correct name. Opaque pink pincushions, must be a maxima x major cross.
60cm £5.50
CAMASSIA leichtlinii ssp. suksdorfii 'Caerulea Group'
Long spikes of beautiful dark blue flowers in May.
75cm £5.00
We hope to see you soon!
