Very late-blooming and wonderfully fragrant, it is a glorious presence in the sunny garden. Flowering about 2 weeks later than the S. vulgaris hybrids, 'Bellicent' sets elongated trumpet-shaped blooms softly colored in a deep pink tinged with rose.

Celosia

There are few flowers as showy as celosia. Whether you plant the plumed type, which produces striking upright spires, or the crested type, which has a fascinating twisted form, you'll love using celosia in bouquets. The flowers are beautiful fresh, but you can also dry them easily. And they bloom in all the colors of a glowing sunset. Celosia likes rich, well-drained soil with moderate water. Spider mites can sometimes be a problem in hot, dry weather.

Erysimum ( Bowles Mauve Wallflower )

This long-flowering, bushy, vigorous wallflower produces long spires of deep mauve flowers from late winter to summer above narrow, grey-green leaves. It is a short-lived plant, but makes a vivid display for months in a sunny border. Try it as part of a colour-themed scheme, or contrast it with vivid yellows. It also looks good in a rock garden or raised bed. Given a good sunny aspect with well-drained soil it will reward you with months of continual flowering.

Helleborus ( Ruby Glow )

Hydrangea macrophylla - Endless Summer ( Blue )

The 'Endless Summer' Hydrangeas are a welcome new addition to this much loved group of plants. They are unlike any other type of Hydrangea in that they will flower on both old and new wood, so they will be laden with flower from June to October, despite late frosts and badly timed pruning. This is the blue flowered form (they also come in pink and white), which is ideal for cool summer planting schemes, but to keep the flower colour
it should be planted in acidic soil or ericaceous compost.

Hydrangea Annabelle ( Pink )

'Annabelle' hydrangea is the most recognized and best selling hydrangea in the world.
It is iron clad and blooms reliably. It is adaptable to many soil types and can be grown in full sun to fairly heavy shade. Pruning and care is a no-brainer. The only drawback - until now it only came in white. Everyone has been waiting for pink and now we have it!
This plant is the most reliable pink hydrangea available today, blooming stunning pink flowers year after year, even after the harshest of winters.

Hydrangea Annabelle ( Strong )

Strong Annabelle is beautiful new variety. It is very similar to Annabelle, however, it has a few improved features which make this plant a sought-after item. Strong Annabelle has typical mop-head flowers of pure white colour from mid to late summer. They are larger than those of Annabelle and are produced on thicker stems that hold the inflorescence better even in and after rain. Deciduous leaves are mid to dark green, changing to yellow in autumn.

Saxifraga arendsii

This selection is a good choice for the partially shaded rock garden, wall garden or scree. Plants form a low cushion or mound of bright green leaves, bearing short stems of upfacing, cup-shaped bright or soft-pink flowers in spring. Requires a cool, moist location. Trim lightly after blooming to remove the flower stems. Adapts well to growing in clay pots or alpine troughs. A light top-dressing of sand right after flowering will help to keep the clumps tight and free from root-rot.
