| Description | Lysimachia nummularia aurea 'Goldilocks'
What an attractive alternative to your regular old lawn or groundcover, Lysimachia Golden Creeping Jenny gives an instant wow factor to any garden! The fast growing yellow/gold rounded foliage creates a soft carpet, which is safe for medium foot traffic. Creeping Jenny is not only limited to lawns. It makes quite a show spilling over retaining walls, cascading down hanging baskets or as a highlight in an otherwise dreary garden bed.
Creeping Jenny prefers moist well draining soil but can tolerate periods of dry. Grows in full shade - full sun quite happily provided there is moisture in the soil. If in a full sun position with poor soil and little water you will find it will not creep as very far but will retain its colour and vigour.
6"/14cm pot size. | Oreganos
This herb is also a perennial, but not as hardy as other oregano, it's likes sun, but not hot midday sun, and likes well drained soil and moderate watering. It only grows to about 45cm tall, making it the smallest of its variety. It has vibrant green leaves edged in ivory, and have white or almost very pale pink flowers. Its low growing prostrate nature means it works wonders in pots or containers, and is perfect in low borders or rockeries. The flavour of variegated oregano is a lot milder than others, but still a great herb to use in the kitchen. Great used in Italian cuisine, or with veggies. It is also used in Greek and Spanish cooking. Due to its mild flavours, this herb works wonders in salads. Leaves can be used fresh or dried. Or you can freeze them in ice cubes for later use. Just defrost and gentle pat dry to use.
