HERBACEOUS PERENNIALS

Herbaceous perennials are a varied and versatile group of plants, which provide interesting foliage, and colourful flowers year after year. They may be grown in a border on their own, or may be used to complement shrubs etc., in mixed borders. Many make excellent ground cover plants .

Wherever they are to be planted, the soil should be well prepared, free of perennial weeds and improved by the addition of organic matter such as composted manure.

We offer a wide range of plants, the best selection being available in spring and summer.

Few people have the space or time for a traditional herbaceous border; mixed beds, which can also be home to shrubs, are an excellent alternative. Plant in groups for effect. Many herbaceous plants have attractive leaves as well as flowers. Remember to include some in your display.
