A tropical perennial with highly aromatic leaves which have characteristic V-shaped markings. Has a very strong flavour with an acquired taste for stir-fry dishes. | A very attractive Marjoram with bright yellow-gold splashes on the tips of the leaves, looking its best in late spring. |
Salvia microphylla 'Hot Lips' (VR) This is a wild selection of the Mexican Salvia microphylla - with small green leaves and unique scarlet-red and white, two-toned flowers. Depending on temperature and moisture these will tend to appear almost completely red or white at any one time, but usually both colours are showing. | Green and yellow variegated foliage with wonderful lemon fragrance. |
Creamy white flowers splashed and frilled with mauve. One of the strongest scented Viola in the range. |
