| Description | Polygala myrtifolia x dalmaisiana
Polygala Dazzler is a shrub that originates from South Africa and has attractive, almost year round, purple pea-like flowers on light green foliage. It makes a great flowering hedge.
Polygala Dazzler prefers a well-drained position, but tolerates poor soils, frost and dry conditions. Pruning in early Spring will encourage bushiness and flowers. Best feed regularly with a slow release fertiliser.
10" pot size. | Cedrus atlantica glauca
Weeping Blue Atlas Cedar is a dramatic, weeping evergreen makes a special addition to any landscape. Superb specimen for minimal-care gardens. The naturally slow-growing sprawling horizontal habit has pendant branchlets displaying icy-blue needles, creating a graceful, waterfall-like effect. Best placed in a position of full sunlight. | Agapanthus praecox minimus
Dwarf Agapanthus are smaller and more compact, great for narrow borders and gardens with less space.
• Fine, strap-like lime green foliage
• White umbel flowers appear on tall stems above the foliage
• Extremely hardy, tolerating poor soils and drought
6"/14cm pot size. | Melissa officinalis 'Lime'
Lime Balm is a perennial herb that shares many characteristics with its cousins lemon balm and mint. It is as easy to grow with a distinct lime fragrance. When planted in the garden it enjoys a moist soil with dappled light. Like Mint, Lime Balm can grow quite quickly, spreading to its garden borders, so be sure to plant it in a contained garden bed or pot should this be an issue. Also like its cousins, Lime Balm will die down or back completely in the colder months, but rest assured it will return every year as lush and leafy as ever!
Lime Balm can be used in many culinary dishes as well as dried for tea or pot pourri! And if none of these tickle your fancy, this plant is absolutely gorgeous along garden edges in Cottage, Potted or Culinary gardens, adding that gorgeous lime fragrance when you brush past.
