Coral Bells - Sprays of tiny striking purple flowers on brilliant glossy green leaves. Great rock gardens and borders. An outstanding strain for the garden and for cut flowers. Shasta Daisy - Easy to grow, these tough plants produce single and semi double blooms up to seven inches across! Fantastic in almost any conditions or soil. Shasta daisy is drought tolerant, deer resistant and self sows easily making them a great addition to any wildflower or rural garden. Cut them back immediately after flowering to encourage a second crop. Pyrethrum Daisy - Striking daisy like flowers, on strong stems, from scented, feathery foliage in a range of pink and magenta shades. Early blooming perennial and long lasting cutflower that is deer resistant and drought tolerant. Although they are strong stemmed bloomers, a tomatoe cage placed over the 2nd year clump will aid in keeping the plant erect in windy conditions. Plants are used to make organic pesticides and so stay bug free.
