Beautiful pink, semi-double flowers are balanced on well-branched deep red stems above a clump of mid-green vine-shaped leaves. An ideal plant for smaller gardens, it is easy to grow once established when the plants will spread to form a patch in a rich moist site. Shorter than many other anemone cultivars, it works well in smaller gardens or towards the middle of a border, and flowers from late summer well into autumn. Plants grown from these seeds may give a variety of forms and colours. Winner of a Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit (1997). ... Learn More

Totally hardy, these fabulous plants will excel in shade and well-prepared organic soil. Very few good seeds collected. ... Learn More

This seed has been collected from plants which were grown from seed of the true wild "Norwegian Angelica", growing on the shoreline in northern Norway, 200 miles inside the Arctic circle, where temperatures plunge to below minus 40C in the cold dark winters. This form makes basal rosettes of divided leathery leaves, above which appear in summer, stocky stems holding globular balls of greenish-white flowers. Later appear the very distinctive, spherical, congested heads of large fragrant seeds. It may be used either as a culinary herb or a striking garden plant! ... Learn More

Exquisite, almost black, finely-cut shiny leaves are held below heads of darkest purple buds opening to delicate sprays of pink flowers.

It is important to wait for full development of the plant to obtain darkest pigmentation. Very few fertile seeds are ever collected. ... Learn More
