Holly - Blue Sea
This unique foliage complements its lacy flowers. The Blue Sea Holly, 'Eryngium alpinum', display thistle-like steely-blue flowers with pincushion centers that are unique and extremely long lasting. Attractive to butterflies, and when given full sun and any well-drained soil, it will flourish for years, growing upright. It makes a great border plant. Its holly-like foliage also has a blue hue, gray markings, and blue stems. Can be used as cut or dried flowers. ... additional info
Geranium - Southcombe Double There are only a few double-geraniums in cultivation and don't look like a Geranium at first glance. Southcombe Double blooms almost non-stop throughout the summer, into fall. For the most part, cranesbill are long-lived and do not require a lot of care. Geraniums are grown in almost any soil as long as it is not wet. The Geranium Southcombe Double, 'Geranium oxonianum', displays fully double, pure pink blooms that sit atop bright green stems. They are perfect in the perennial border and work well as a ground cover too. This plant would look wonderful in a pot on a sun-drenched porch and is also deer resistant. They do best in sun, but will tolerate some degree of shade. |
