| Most Perennials are easy to grow & whatever the nature of your soil, site or the effect you are trying to create, there are bound to be several that will meet your particular needs.......but which ones ? We hope that the brief descriptions are helpful and have also indicated approx. mature height in cm & months when each plant is likely to be in flower. | ||||
| We are happy to put together collections to suit any of the following: | ||||
| Shade, dry shade, front or back of border, rockery, marginal (damp ground), prairie | ||||
or any other habitat you specify |
||||
| All perennials are grown locally but the full range may not always be available at any one time. If you plan to collect your plants, we suggest you contact us a couple of weeks beforehand to avoid disappointment | ||||
| For other plants now available, see 'Summer shrubs and trees' , 'Ground Cover and Climbers' , 'Conifers' , | ||||
