Fiona….. Clematis montana………. Broughton Star in the foreground and a pale pink montana clothing the tree behind. Vigorous, hardy, low maintenance and prolific flowerers. Ideal for clothing dull trees, unsightly fences or just grow for their sheer exuberance.

Julian….. Camassia var.Quamash; Ajuga reptans Burgundy Glow (Bugle); Mossy Saxifrage ……… this combination gives an effective layering effect – the Bugle and Saxifrage provide excellent ground cover with contrasting colours of pink and blue. The spires of the Bugle rise up through the froth of Saxifrage with the Quamash adding that extra dimension and height with their deeper blue spikes. Also excellent plants for bees and other insects.
