A Selection of Prairie Garden Plants
A garden of height, transparency and texture – tall plants among short. Walk through a summer meadow of ornamental grasses, asters and perennial sunflowers. They provide structure and drama through the cold winter months, touched by frost in the morning sun.

NEPETA 'Chettle Blue'
New variety. Same bushy habit as other grandiflora's, but with more intense glowing blue flowers. Insect heaven! Sunny, well drained spot.
75cm £5.00
EURYBIA divaricata
Purple stems and backs of leaves, small white daisies in late summer. Any soil in sun or shade.
90cm £5.00
SYMPHYOTRICHUM 'Foxbrook Fairy'
Brand new, from John Williams. Lots of pale mauve daisies on a later-flowering plant, from Sepember-October. An ericoides cross, but none-running, forms a clump.
1.20m £5.00
MISCANTHUS nepalensis
My favourite Miscanthus - pale green foliage on a shorter plant, with long arching stems and silky buff flowers. Very different from other Miscanthus, and good for a small garden.

RUDBECKIA fulgida var. deamii
Deep yellow daisies with dark centres from late summer to autumn. Tall stems and rough foliage.
AGM 75cm £5.00
