Digitalis Purpurea : The Foxglove (Digitalis purpurea) is a biennial or short-lived perennial, freely self-sowing, with a rosette of softly hairy, oval leaves and tall, one-sided spires of pendant, tubular, bright rosy-purple flowers 6cm long.
French Lavender : French lavender with round flowerheads and upright petals like butterfly wings. Looks wonderful planted in a sunny border. The flowers are a magnet for bees and other nectar loving insects.
Campanula : C. persicifolia is a rosette-forming perennial with narrow, evergreen basal leaves. Loose spires of outward-facing, cup-shaped, lilac-blue flowers appear in early and mid-summer.
Aquilegia : Aquilegia are clump-forming herbaceous perennials with long-stalked, ternately divided basal leaves and erect, leafy stems bearing bell-shaped flowers. We planted an alpine type in Ken and Alison's garden.
Thyme : Plant out in a warm, sunny spot in the garden. They demand
well-drained soil and will rot over winter if the ground is too wet.
If your soil is too heavy or you have a small garden, grow thyme in
pots.
