A delightful change to the common blue cornflower. These richly coloured flowers glisten in the sunshine, for each of the tiny petals of the very double, powder-puff blooms, is tipped with ice white. Annual Cornflower 'Frosted Queen' is perfect for filling gaps in summer borders where it will attract bees and butterflies. With its tall wiry stems, this pretty annual makes an excellent cut flower too. Height: 75cm (30). Spread: 30cm (12).
A lovely range of Camellia-flowered marigolds that orginated in France with broader more elegantly shaped blooms than ordinary types. A superb plant for bedding or outdoor containers. Flowers all summer to first frosts. Height: 23-30cm (10-12in).
The first apricot flowered Diascia from seed! Slender spikes of exquisite flowers spring from a mound of small, glossy, dark-green leaves. Superb for rockeries, borders and containers where it will repeat flowering to early autumn
Red and copper-toned flowers are borne on stems that rise to 5ft. A well-branched habit ensures that several blooms come from each plant. Great for children. Height: 150cm (59). Spread: 50cm (20).Culinary information: Some parts of these flowers are edible. Click here for more details about edible flowers.
