Epimediums

Granted an AGM in recent Wisley Trials this is an excellent large cultivar of the late Summer favourite. Flat carmine-red petals from July into Autumn.  Up to 3 feet.

Needs sun and space around the plant to thrive.


Another new Echinacea of the “Big Skies” series.

Fragrant cream to citron yellow flowers on sturdy, well-branched stems Flowers July into Autumn. Most soils.  2½ feet. Full sun or light shade.


Awarded an AGM in recent Wisley Trials, this is my favourite of the pink Echinaceas. At 3½ feet it is significantly taller and also darker than other varieties. Good, upward-facing, dark-pink flowers. Sun, open site.


Huge, horizontally held 4 - 6 inch vibrant rose-red flower-heads surrounding a prominent brown cone. Very hardy and will form good clumps as it matures. Sun, open site. Grows to 30 inches


An excellent seed grown plant with a narrow-petaled flower which faces upward and follows the sun.

Neutral to alkaline, average to poor garden soil.

Sun to partial shade. Very hardy. 18 - 24 inches.


A stunning plant 2½ - 3 feet with deep orange-red flowers, July - September.  Sun, well-drained but not bone dry soil. Likes some space. Reputedly very hardy.



A newer variety, said to be a more reliable perennial than some earlier efforts. 2 - 2½ feet with intense golden-yellow flowers. Early to mid-Summer continuing  until first frost if dead-headed.
