Many herbaceous plants & grasses provide colour & seasonal excitement throughout the year. Some such as delphiniums and paeonies only flower for a few weeks whilst others provide colour for months, and their seed heads may provide winter interest long into the New Year.
The perennial geraniums are wonderful plants, tolerant of a wide range of growing conditions and many of the new cultivars flower for many months. Amongst the new generation of blue geraniums that look similar to the old ‘Johnson’s Blue are ‘Brookside’, ‘Rozanne’ and ‘Orion’.and all make excellent ground cover at the front of the border.
