Herbaceous Border Plants


The herbaceous border is a classic feature of English gardens and is a great way to achieve a cottage garden feel. Herbaceous plants die back in the winter and become dormant, before resuming growth in the spring. Our extensive range of herbaceous perennial plants offers excellent value for money, whether you’re looking for something tall and airy, wildlife-friendly or highly fragrant. Read our article on how to plant and grow perennial plants for more information.

With a subtle aroma of nutmeg they're a useful cut flower plant for an indoor vase. Ht. 90cm. Supplied in 5cm pots. More info

Foxglove 'Illumination Pink'

Digitalis

An exciting new foxglove, with parentage from the little known Isoplexis (Canary Island Foxglove) giving this variety its attractive tropical colouring. The densely packed flower spikes are sterile and won't set seed, so the plants will bloom from June right through until November! A well-branched habit allows for a continuous show of flowers. Foxglove 'Illumination Pink' is ideal for cottage or woodland gardens, where it will thrive in sun or part shade. Unlike many other foxgloves this variety is a true perennial so you will be able to enjoy the flowers for many years to come. Height: 90cm (35"). Spread: 45cm (18"). Supplied as plug plants.
