Flowers
Historically we aren’t known for flowers, but we are easily persuaded by beautiful colours and may have added a few more in recent years. We tend to recommend planting flowers en masse for a bold defined statement. You’ll see our striking large blue and white Agapanthus africanus lining our greenhouse walks, the haze of our purple Verbena bonariensis, and the scorching red shimmer of our Crocosmia ‘Lucifer’ set among the other plants on our nursery.
