Drizzle coating on the stunning Erodium manescavii yesterday morning. A really tough plant, self seeds a little. Bigger than some geraniums! #erodium #erodiummanescavii #storksbill #frontoftheborderplant #easyplants #peatfree #plantsforsale #mailorderplants

The amazing Paris polyphylla has more flowers than before so hoping for more seed this year. First seedlings pricked out last year, four years after sowing! #paris #parispolyphylla #shadeplants #plantsforshade #woodlandgarden #rareplants #weirdplants #peatfree

Eryngium planum 'White Glitter' is a bit different to the usual blues. Could be useful in some places - and still like by the insects. #eryngium #eryngiumplanum #eryngiumplanumwhiteglitter #peatfree #plantsforsale #mailorderplants

Cortaderia selloana 'Icalma' catching the low sun. Early flowering so avoiding most weather damage, dwarf and with blue-grey leaves. Very close to 'Patagonia' but they are different. #pampasgrass #cortaderia #cortaderiaselloanaicalma #ornamentalgrasses #grasses #peatfree

Knautia macedonica old red form looks at home with the warm golden flowers of Melica persica. Both wanting full sun and drained soil. #knautia #knautiamacedonica #melica #melicapersica #ornamentalgrasses #naturalistic

The rarely seen Heuchera 'Ruffles' makes an excellent, long lived garden plant. Pre-dates all the modern coloured leaf forms and outlives most of them! #heuchera #heucheramicrantha #heucheramicrantharuffles #evergreen #foliage #foliageandflowers #cutflowers

The rather delightful Viola corsica. Gently selfseeds, ideal for cracks in paving or gravel. We have a nice batch of young plants nearly ready to go, they'll be added to the website in a week or two. #viola #violacorsica #peatfree #mailorderplants #plantsforsale

Dierama ambiguum seedlings - look like they have some D igneum in them to me. Lovely plants anyway, flowering at about 50cm. #dierama #dieramaambiguum #grownfromseed #seedgrown #peatfree #mailorderplants #plantsforsale

Commelina dianthifolia caught our eye as we started a stock take yesterday. Website all updated at last! These stunning blue flowers are only open for the morning but will worth it. 20cm. #commelina #commelinadianthifolia #blueflowers #peatfree #mailorderplants #plantsforsale

Veronicastrum virginicum 'Fascination' and Rubus ulmifolius 'Bellidiflorus'. Probably not an ideal combination but they blend quite well! #veronicastrum #veronicastrumvirginicum #veronicastrumvirginicumfascination #rubus #rubusulmifolius #rubusulmifoliusbellidiflorus

A little bunch of annual Briza maxima has popped up in the Verbena 'Bampton' growing in the path as you enter our sales area. Perfect combo but you need to be ready to thin both out as the selfseed! #briza #brizamaxima #quakinggrass #verbena #selfseeding #selfsown #gravelgarden

The slugs have finally found the leaves but thankfully there are flowers to distract! Hosta sp TCM12-838. Compact and normally intact... #hosta #hostatcm12838 #wildcollection #peatfree #mailorderplants #plantsforsale
