On-and-on-it-goes Perennial Border Combination
- Good for Cutting
- Loved by Pollinators
A perennial collection on a prominent corner at Perch Hill which provides soft and gentle tones and textures for vases and all-round garden beauty from the early summer until winter
First comes the alstroe, which if you choose a good one, will become a favourite flower, giving just as good a second flush of flowers in autumn as when this shot was taken in June. With it erupts the best-ever perennial grass, Stipa gigantea which froths up in May and is still standing, elegant and glorious in November. For early on, this graceful and unusual foxglove turns heads and from late summer is replaced by the pure-as-it-comes thalictrum and all through from start to finish.
This collection contains 3 x 9cm pots each of:- Stipa gigantea
- Thalictrum delavayi 'Splendide White'
- Alstroemeria 'Layon' (Majestic Series)
- Digitalis lanata 'Cafe Creme'
On occasion we may need to send you an alternative variety to the one shown, which will be selected by our growing team to ensure its suitability. It will be of equal or greater value to the original. Please contact our customer service team if there are any problems.
