"Its been said that life is like a garden.
Every small work of kindness and every thoughtful gesture is like a tiny seed.
And when you plant these seeds, wonderful things can happen." - Tracey Donovan

(Bugbane). To 1.2 metres.. Tall wands of creamy white bottle-brush flowers are held high above bright green, lacy foliage from mid-summer onwards. Splendid for cutting!

Clianthus puniceus
(Kakabeak). Red variety. A woody legumey shrub native to the North Island, with striking clusters of red flowers. These flowers resemble the beak of a New Zealand parrot, and the plant is also known as Parrot's Beak, Parrot's Bill and Lobster Claw. An endangered species in the wild. Widely grown as a garden plant. Grows to about 2 metre high with spreading branches producing leaf stalks up to 15 cm long bearing several pairs of small leaflets. They usually flower from spring through to early summer, but can flower twice a year or even all year round. 30 seeds 2023
Convallaria majalis 'Albostriata'
. Rare. Variegated lily of the valley, with cream-striped leaves and cream-white flowers. Only one piece with large shoot per pot. Most variegated cultivars revert to plain leaves within a few years, but 'Albostriata' is less likely to do so. Plants don't spread as readily as other varieties, making it a good choice for small gardens. It works well when grown at the front of a shady border or beneath shrubs, and works very well in a vase. Arching racemes of bell-shaped, white flowers with an extremely rich perfume, from late spring. Shade. Woodland garden or shady border. Winter dormant.
Coreopsis verticillata
To 40 cms. Bushy rhizomatous perennial with numerous branched stems. Bears yellow daisy like flowerheads in loose corymbs in early summer. Sun or part shade, well drained soil. Winter dormant.
