Plant Overview

A rare and extremely garden-worthy plant from the windy Azores Islands. 

Large sprays of fragrant, creamy white flowers, similar to cow parsley, open above compact stems, bearing leathery, slightly hairy, little-divided leaves, an unusual feature within this group of plants. 

Flowers in early to late summer. Beneficial for pollinators.

Drought tolerant and fully hardy.

Forms a good-sized bushy clump and makes an excellent border plant. Grow in full sun or partial shade.

Height and spread: 70cm x 50cm

All our plants are supplied in 9cm pots unless otherwise specified. Plants in this size pot establish quickly in the garden and often outpace plants in bigger pots planted at the same time. Our potted plants can be planted immediately, unless otherwise noted, or you can leave them in their pots until you are ready to plant.
The majority of our plants are grown outdoors. This means that they follow their natural growth patterns and are ready to plant at any time of the year. If you order the plants in winter, they are likely to be dormant and died back to ground level, ready to shoot again in spring - just like the herbaceous perennials in your own garden. Very occasionally, in winter, we may indicate on the packing slip that a plant needs to be hardened off before planting out. This will be because it has just come out of a polytunnel. If you have any questions about our plants or growing methods, please feel free to drop us an email.
We grow most of what we sell ourselves, in our nursery in the Buckinghamshire countryside. Our prices include VAT at 20%.
