Paeonia 'Shirley Temple'
Superlative in every way and one of the best of all garden peonies! Huge fragrant double flowers opening a beautiful pale blush pink and soon changing to purest white. If grown in partial shade, the flowers will retail their pinky hue for longer and will also be darker on the shady side of the flower than on the sunny side! An outstanding variety for cutting, the plants have a solid upright habit with firm stems and good foliage which colors well in the autumn. Grows to approx 90cm in height and is also one of the last peonies to flower.
Polystichum setiferum
Long soft fronds often with a distinct angular twist along the stems. Forms a large single clump up to 60cm in height and spread, the fronds remaining evergreen in all the hardest winters. Does well in most conditions if not too dry. One of the anchor plants of any fern collection.
Carex divulsa
A densely-tufted evergreen grass with arching, dark green to greyish-green leaves producing short spikes of greenish-brown flowers in summer.
Carex buchananii
Tufted evergreen perennial with arching orange-brown leaves, curled at their tips. From mid summer onwards, spikes of brown flowers are displayed on long stems.
Deschampsia cespitosa
An evergreen grass forming a tussock of narrow, dark green foliage and bearing feathery panicles of silvery purple flowers in summer. If in flower these plants will be cut down to around 30cm in height, prior to packing.
Carex 'Ice Dance' (v)
An evergreen perennial grass with arching green leaves narrowly edged creamy white. A great ornamental plant for sunny or partially shaded areas and also good for containers.
Stipa gigantea
A large, tufted, evergreen grass with arching linear green leaves and bearing long, oat-like, purplish flowers in summer maturing to gold.
Carex morrowii 'Irish Green'
A dense, clump-forming grass with bright, evergreen leaves with greenish-brown flower spikes in summer.
Athyrium filix-femina

Carex remota
A native, evergreen grass forming small tussocks of bright green foliage and bearing pale yellow flowers in late summer.
Paeonia 'Catharina Fontijn'
If you want one of the best of all white peonies for cutting then this is one to plant! The buds are slow to open, teasing you with the promise of the wonderful display to come. They start off showing a pale pink blush but quickly turn to pure white. These large and beautiful flowers are both sweetly scented and long lasting making them really good for cutting. Although a taller growing peony often to around 95cm or so, it is a good one for the back of the border, and its strong dark stems mean that staking is rarely necessary. (Van der Valk 1952).
Paeonia 'Festiva Maxima'
One of the most enigmatic of peonies with large double white flowers that have random crimson flecking a bit like raspberry ripple ice cream. Every flower is unique and the amount of red flecking will vary from season to season so you never quite know what to expect! One of the very old and very famous french fragrant peonies, excellent for cutting with its strong stems and dark green lustrous foliage. A thoroughly excellent and reliable peony. Can be quite tall to 95cm so may need staking in a windy garden. (Miellez 1851).
Carex comans 'Frosted Curls'
A compact, evergreen grass forming a dense mound of icy green tufts. Great when planted en masse and also as a container plant on the patio.
Carex oshimensis Everest ('Fiwhite' PBR) (EverColor Series) (v) (3 litre pot)
Evergreen perennial grass with narrow, arching, dark green leaves with white margins and bearing small, brown flowers in summer.
Carex testacea
One of the evergreen New Zealand sedges which have many uses, providing winter and summer interest. Its narrow, arching leaves are olive-green in summer, the colour intensifying to warm coppery-orange in winter. Flowers are brown and insignificant, but their stems droop gracefully as they age.
