More about the plants
Geum
Masses of soft flowers carried above a rosette of green foliage
Prolific, hardy and reliable.
Most grow to around 50cm, so they are perfect for pots and front of borders.
The foliage of Geums is semi-evergreen (They have a short period of dormancy but appear green throughout the year).
Umbelifer
Umbellifers are characterised by their disc-shaped flowers called umbels, that are actually comprised of many tiny flowers held on short stems.
Tall and elegant, they lend an airy, relaxed feel to planting combinations.
Height, 60-70cm
Stipa Tenuissima
Grasses are an essential part of naturalistic planting.
They offer a visually quiet and restful structure that softens and pulls together more showy plants.
Stipa Tenuissima (aka Mexican Feather grass and Pony tails) is a shorter, more easily placed grass, that brings a year-round feathery swoosh to planting schemes.
