Your collection will include the following varieties: 

A. Hollyhock ‘Chater’s Double Mixed’ – Architectural spires of ruffled, double blooms tower over summer borders adding structure and a riot of colour.
B, Crocosmia – Form dense clumps of upright sword-shaped foliage, from which sprays of bright orange or red flowers, carried in branched spikes, appear in late summer.
C. Physalis Chinese Lantern – A highly unusual and exotic looking plant that provides garden interest throughout the seasons. In midsummer the plant is covered in small creamywhite flowers, later in the year they produce bright red-orange papery calyces that look like Chinese lanterns.
D. Gypsophila Rosea – Low, creeping plant that makes lovely ground cover for rockeries and gravel gardens. Sprays of tiny pink flowers appear in summer, above the semi-evergreen foliage.
E. Lupin ‘Russel Hybrids’ – These elegant lupins produce tall spires of tightly packed flowers, that rise above palmate foliage in a magical array of colours.
F. Aquilegia McKana Hybrids – A cottage garden classic, these delightful aquilegia flowers of up to 7.5cm (3”) wide create a bright and uplifting display of vibrant, long-spurred blooms.
G. Convallarai Majalis – This ever popular perennial is an excellent ground cover for the moist humus-rich areas of the garden creating a blanket of white bell shaped flowers with long green leaves.
H. Eryngium Planum – A handy little plant for the border, as they’ll grow in many different types of soil.
I. Echinacea Purpurea – These robust perennials bloom over a long period, attracting bees and butterflies to their daisy-like flower heads. Echinacea purpurea is tough and reliable, coping well on most soils and happily tolerating coastal conditions.
J. Echinops Ritro – Tight clusters of deep blue flowers form mini-globes on long, strong straight stems of pure silver. The foliage is amazing and quite unique, giving off a silver sheen whatever the weather.
