| Description | Cercis siliquastrum 'Showgirl'
Cercis 'Showgirl' is the narrowest growing of all the Cercis, making it perfect narrow spaces, along driveways and walkways. Its gorgeous heart-shaped foliage is deep green in the summer, turning golden yellows in autumn and in the spring, clusters of purple-pink blossoms cover the bare branches.
See our Cercis Factsheet here for more about the different Cercis varieties!
For care instructions, features and more, check out Additional Information below | Penstemon hybrid 'Port wine'
Penstemon are attractive, medium sized perennials and are the showiest by far, putting on a terrific display of colour in the summer and autumn months. The foliage is glossy green. Plants form a bushy upright clump, with glossy green foliage bearing several spikes of large dark burgundy/purple trumpet flowers. Growns to 1m x 1 m | Prunus salicina
Mariposa Plum is a Japanese blood plum with dark red flesh and large fruit if thinned. The flavour is excellent, the skin glossy red and it has a egg shaped fruit.
Remember that most plum trees need to be planted near other types of plum trees so that they can pollinate each other and produce fruit. Mariposa plums are pollinated by Satsuma and Santa Rosa Japanese plum trees. | Lavandula angustifolia
Traditionally English Lavender was grown for its heavenly fragrance, used in oils and potpourri.
• Small, slender blue-ish purple flowers on tall stems above the foliage
• Grown in pots, as a hedge or in the cottage garden to attract bees and butterflies
• Tolerates drought and dry conditions, preferring well drained soils
