Flat clusters of small white flowers winter to spring, followed by small green fruits which are shaped like upside-down hearts. Brightens up garden with the large bright white flowers.
Geum rivale 'Venomous Red'

Roscoea alpina 'Royle'
Pretty pink and white, orchid-like flowers early summer. Light shade and good drainage. Hardy. Winter dormant.
Disporopsis Pernyi
To 45 cms. Upright-arching, purple-spotted stems with shiny, leather leaves. Evergreen. Pendulous, tubular, creamy-white, bell-shaped flowers from late spring. Purple-blue berries ripen in early autumn. Rhizomatous, clump forming ground cover. Moist, well-drained soil for part shade.
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.
Primula chungensis
To 70 cms. Candelabra style primula. From mid spring, stout stems carry tiered whorls of flowers. The striking red/orange buds open to orangey yellow. Some shade best and moist soil. Winter dormant.
