The odd plant has white flowers. Short-lived perennial, however it survives in my garden for a few years. Let it self-seed. 75 to 90 cms. Attractive large flowering spikes. Large white-pink bracts. Impressive and long flowering summer/autumn. Fragrant. Economic, culinary, medicinal and ornamental virtues. Sun and good drainage. Specimen plant.
Height to 40 cms. Lovely greenish purple foliage and blue flowers. Sun or partial shade in summer. Winter dormant.
To 60 cms in height. Unusual flowers that are a group of tightly packed florets that are backed by petal-like bracts. This makes the flowers look much like a star or a firework. Sun/part shade. Clump forming, hardy perennial. Could include shades of pink or white/green. Winter dormant.
(Burning Bush). Year 2 plants. To 90 cms. Highly fragrant, white, 5-petalled flowers in early summer. These may take two more years to flower. They and the unripe fruit, produce an aromatic, volatile oil which may be ignited in hot weather. Sun. Rare, specimen plant and not seen in garden centres. Best planted in permanent position where you can brush past this. Winter dormant.
