Plant description

Blue tones are very soothing, and this combination nails both the colour and structural elements, which are so pleasing to the eye. Pollinating insects will flock to them too.

What's included:

    Each collection contains one of each of the following. The plants are supplied in 9cm pots.

  • Agastache 'Blue Fortune' Hyssops are great for adding vertical accents to a border, with whorls of long-lasting, tiny flowers arranged like a bottlebrush and pointed, aromatic fresh green leaves that are attractive to butterflies and bees. They are short-lived though, and may need replacing every few years, especially after a cold or wet winter. Blue Fortune has loose spires of lilac-blue flowers from July to October and peppermint-scented leaves. This upright, bushy perennial is perfect for the middle of a sheltered, sunny border. Try it as part of a Mediterranean scheme, with grey-leaved plants, or among ornamental grasses. Grows to 1m.

  • Echinops 'Veitch's Blue' Ever popular for their globes of blue flowers that attract hoards of insects, globe thistles bring a natural look to the garden. This handsome blue variety is ideal for the middle or back of a sunny, well-drained border. It makes a particularly good cut or dried flower. Grows to 90cm.

Planting tips:

Prepare the bed well by digging in lots of composted organic matter before you plant. For best results it is essential that the plants are kept well watered for the first year, particularly during warmer weather.

Please note:

The plants in this collection will die right back in autumn, then fresh new growth will appear again in spring.
