Veronica ‘Moody Blues Sky Blue’

This compact perennial forms a bushy clump of dark-green leaves, bearing upright spikes of light blue flowers through the summer months, right up until frost. Removing faded spikes will keep plants in flower for much longer. Excellent for cutting and butterflies love it.

Prefers full sun in a free draining soil.

We also stock ‘Purpleicious’ & ‘Tissington White’ and ‘Moody Blues Pink’.

H 40cm S 40cm

Vinca ‘Ralph Shugert’

For many months from spring to autumn, large violet-blue flowers nestle amongst the yellow-margined, dark green leaves, putting on a very pretty display. This creeping, evergreen provides valuable groundcover, often in quite inhospitable settings where little else will grow. Keep neat if needed by trimming in spring.

Prefers part shade and will cope with most soils, even very dry.

Rabbit resistant.

Viola labradorica

This is an excellent edging perennial, its dark purple leaves forming an excellent foil for its violet flowers. It spreads well to cover the ground and it looks lovely running along the base of a wall and along the edges of steps. This is the dark purple leaved form of our native wood violet and it will self seed merrily.

Prefers part shade and a free draining soil.

H 10cm S 30cm

Rabbit resistant.

Wisteria ‘Royal Purple’

t’s not unusual for the pendent trusses of lilac flowers to reach up to 50cm in length, so they can really put on an amazing display in the late spring or early summer garden. Often starting to appear on quite young plants, the flowers of this award-winning twining, deciduous climber have a lovely perfume, so if it’s possible, try to plant it near a seating area or entrance.

We also stock ‘Black Dragon’.

Prefers full sun / part shade in a moist, free draining soil.
