Suitable for Cutting
Sanguisorba tenuifolia 'Rubra'
To 80 cms. Long arching stems of slender bottlebrush like flowers in summer, that are a lovely rosy red colour. Sun. Clump forming habit. Winter dormant.
Scabiosa caucasica 'Fama White'
A superior variety. To 80 cms. Forms a compact mould. Long stems bear large, frilly white blooms summer to autumn, that are ideal for picking. Sun or part shade. Lovely, popular border perennial.
Stokesia 'Peachie's Pick'
To 45 cms. Compact and late flowering with large, fluffy, cornflower-like blue flowers late summer to autumn. Sun. Suits moist, sandy but well-drained soil, good drought tolerance. Not too wet in winter. Remove spent flowering stems to encourage additional blooms. Rock garden, front of border, cottage garden. Winter dormant.
Zantedeschia (Arum Lily)
Height to about 60 cms. Pure white funnel-shaped flowers. Wetland plants, great ground cover for around ponds and streams. Rhizomatous, prolific ground cover. Broad arrow-shaped dark green leaves. Winter dormant.
Astrantia major Rubra
To 70 cms in height. Masterwort is highly regarded by floral designers for the unique umbels of starry flowers, a bit like a refined Queen-Anne Lace in effect, but not at all weedy in habit. This is a seed strain, mostly producing red-flowered forms, with a few pink or white on occasion. Excellent filler plant for a moist area in sun or part shade. Also nice in mixed containers or tubs. Flowers may be cut fresh, or dried for winter arrangements. Remove faded flowers to encourage more buds, also to prevent plants from self seeding all over. Winter dormant.
Phlomis russeliana
(Jerusalem Sage). Mature plants have 1 metre stems with whorls of pale hooded yellow flowers from summer to autumn. Sun or part shade and good drainage. Drought tolerant once established. Excellent cut flower. Winter floral stems attractive in floral work. Winter dormant.
