Echeveria 'Black Knight' (Prince)  A wonderful succulent with shiny, dark chocolate brown colouring with inner green markings. | Echeveria elegans (flatter leaves)  A good form of the increasingly popular bedding plants, with steely grey succulent foliage with bronze tinges and curious flowers in summer. |
 An interesting little succulent from Japan with rosettes of very pale grey leaves. In late summer and autumn, 5-10cm pale yellow flower spikes poke up from the rosettes forming cone shapes that resemble a Chinese hat. | 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. |
Verbena bonariensis 'Lollipop' (P)  An abundance of small clusters of lilac flowers all summer long. |
