Customers who bought this item also bought the following:

Cosmos 'Chocamocha' (P) £24.25 Sumptuous velvety-bronze flowers on lanceolate green foliage. This newly bred variety provides even more of a chocolate scent than the previous form and is more compact for pot and garden.	Schizostylis coccinea 'Major' £41.00 Strappy grass-like stems which produce long flower stems with ample sized scarlet red flowers in late summer.
Heuchera 'Berry Smoothie' (P) £49.50 A real "smoothie" colour all year round - rose pink, through raspberry to blackberry shades. Big, bold habit. A blend of heat loving H. villosa and cold tolerance of H. americana.	Meconopsis 'Lingholm' £23.00 This is technically part of the "fertile blue group" of Meconopsis. Not common in cultivation, but this is a reliable form of this perennial from The Himalayas, with enormous electric, cobalt-blue flowers, up to four inches (10cm) across and distinctive rusty brown hairs on the stems and new leaves. Certainly the best form of this group available in the world today.
Lithodora 'Heavenly Blue' £27.00 Brought over to the UK in 1825, this alpine has beautiful, bright sky-blue flowers for most of the summer.
