| Description | Paeonia hybrid
ITOH Peony Scarlet Heaven is a popular variety of peonies for it's stunning deep velvety red flowers with yellow centres.
Intersectional Peonies are an exciting new hybrid between Tree Peonies and Herbaceous Peonies. These beautiful plants combine the best of both worlds with an extended flowering season, a free flowering habit, many upright-facing flowers, vigorous growth habit, and a long vase life when picked.
Dies down like the Herbaceous Peony, and requires a cold wintering period to fully aid and promote new growth in Spring. Lots of lime improves the health and flowering ability of the all Peonies so be generous with feeding. Requires a part sun/shaded position.

Garlic chives are not mentioned in many of the old western herbals, but have been used in Asian cuisine for centuries. Like normal Chives, the are a hardy herbaceous perennial. The only differences being they have a mild garlic and onion flavour, and small white starry like flowers. They are great in pots or in the ground, preferring full sun to part shade. They can grow up to 50cm tall, and splitting the plant every few years will help ensure the plants survival. When harvesting, cut the leaves near to the ground, as it's better for the plant. Garlic chives are great used in salads, stirfrys, rice, and as a garnish for curries, soups, and potatoes. They will keep in the fridge for up to a week. Alternatively you can preserve them in butters, oils and vinaigrettes.
