Arctorstaphylos uva-ursi
Another native plant which is extremely useful. This plant really shines when planted above a wall or some area you wish to soften. No additional watering required once it has become established. White flowers are folllowed by red friut. Very low creeping woody plant.
Brunnera macrophylla
The original species which so many hybrids were spawned from. The species flowers more profusely and still has wonderful heart shape leafs. The leaves are a light green, and emerge very early in the year. This plant loves full to partial shade and produces many small blue forget me like flowers in the spring.
Digitalis x mertonensis
A true perennials foxglove that has excellent foliage and a light pink flower in May.
It does very well in a bit of shade where it's foliage grow unhindered. Deer resistant and yes poisonous, plant this well out of reach of children. 3' high x 1' wide
Erigeron "Profusion"
The daisy like flowers of this plant are out for months during the summer. It loves sun and a well drained location. A great plant for the front of the border, it mixes well with Nepta, Salvia and many more winners. 9" high x 2' wide.
Erysimum "Bowles Mauve"
This is a woody evergreen perennial which loves sun. The mauve flowers it produces are in abundance during the spring and summer. You should shear these back in mid summer but it is always hard to do. Good foliage and slightly scented flowers add to this plants value.
Helleborus argutifolius
This is one tough plant. Most hellebores require shade and a comfy spot to flourish, this one likes heat and lots of sun. In fact shade will cause it to become quite floppy.
It has pale green flowers which are very early to emerge. Strong evergreen foliage the rest of the year makes this a winner.
Lavandula angustifolia "Munstead"
This is a dwarf form of the classic English lavender. This tough plant has a maximum height of 18" and loves a sunny hot location. Good drainage is a must for this plant to come back after our wet winters.
Miscanthus "Morning Light"
This 3' ornamental grass is very useful in small gardens. It has a dramatic effect with the white and green banding on it's leaves. The foliage makes a great contrast in any border.
Nepta "Walkers Low"
A great edging plant for hot, sunny locations. Well behaved and in flower a good portion of the summer makes this plant a must. Cat's do love this plant but there effect is pretty minor.
Pennisetum alopecuroides 'Hameln'
This dwarf fountain grass has great foliage and is stunning when it's in flower. It has a max. size of 3' and looks great with other fall flowering perernials.
