"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
Teucrium scorodonia Crispum Marginatum
(Woodland sage). 35 cms. Mounding ground cover with unusual. ruffled leaves with a touch of white on the edges. Nice texture. Spikes of tiny charming lipped, cream to pale yellow-green flowers in summer. Shade. Tolerates dry conditions once established. Winter dormant.
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.
Hosta 'Fire Island'
