We hope you enjoy the video Full plant list in order with zone information is in the description :)

I’ve never seen such a tiny centaurea, it’s gorgeous 😍 Love the Tiarella too and I have a woodland border with a gap in it which would be perfect for it. I think I may be visiting your website very soon 😊

Thank you :)

I discovered your channel recently and have been working my way through all of your videos! I cannot tell you how amazing it is to find a garden channel by someone in the UK who clearly knows what they are talking about, keeps their videos clear, informative, helpful but also simple and to the point. I really, really appreciate you putting this content out there - please keep it coming, and please don't turn into one of those channels who are just full of ads/sponsers and full of waffle because you are brilliant as you are and just what we need! I only wish I'd found you earlier. Thanks again, I've subscribed so hopefully won't miss any future videos!

Oh and I would LOVE to see more videos comparing different varieties of a type of plant. It's so hard to decide when you're looking online and trying to decide which one to get. I actually found you trying to compare different types of geum, and that video really helped me decide which type I needed. Thanks again!

Love them all especially the shade ones. So appreciate the Latin names

I love your presentations. You include so much information. I haven't missed a single video since I first joined this passed winter. As I live in the PNW, USA much of what you speak of works in my area. Thank you!

I love how these plant names just roll off your tongue 😅. It’s such a wonderful skill 🤩🎊🥰

Had lots of practice :)

Lovely video. A shade is a color plus black. A tint is a color plus white. ❤

Interesting plants. I knew only two, so informative although they may not work for me,

So lovely and refreshing to listen to Latin names and botanical descriptive terms. To this excellent list I’d add genus Lewisia.

Thanks for this video, I always get stuck for ideas and something a little different at the front of the boarder. I’m going to visit your website now. 😃

Another excellent video. Thank you Rosy. Your videos are always full of content and useful information to help with plant choice. Keep them coming 😀

Beautiful plants. Thank you! ❤

Thank you for this video Rosy, I have been on the look out for some lovely frothy front of dry stony border plants. So now I’ve got some fantastic little plants for the spot .

Just discovered your channel and have subscribed - very straightforward and informative. Thank you

Brilliant, thank you

Wonderful, one of your best. Thank you!

Thank you - so useful.

thank you Rosie 🙂

All centaureas are great. The classic centaurea montana is so easy to grow from seed, then you can divide it and it reseeds itself too without becoming invasive. It handles drought, coz it goes dormant in the summer (a bit like papaver orientale), then grow back in autumn. Other centaureas will keep their foliage in summer. One really nice perennial for the border that no one is growing is Lysimachia Ephemerum. It's a protected lysimachia from the Pyrenees and other parts of Spain, and although it's from wet areas, it will do fine in normal clay soil, it'll just be small, which is ideal for the front of a border. The flowers are upright, unlike others lysimachias where they bend, and it's also not too hard to grow it from seed. Otherwise yeah, I love aquilegia, potentilla (nepalensis), veronica (especially veronica teucrium), or eryngium (eryngium planum is super easy to grow from seeds). Iberis sempervirens (not "vivens", it's an r) I don't like. It just doesn't do well in my garden... It loses leaves, stems, year after year, and looks awful instead of more bushy. I just don't know why, I have alkaline clay soil. Maybe it doesn't like wet soils in winter. Iberis is totally absent from the reference book "Dream plants for the natural garden" by Piet Oudolf, and maybe that's why ? Coz he tried it and it doesn't do well?

There are many Iberis and thanks for the spelling correction 😊 Yes some of these plants live you or don’t

Are these suitable for the US ?

I wonder is there a dwarf white centaurea?

❤❤excellent..??which would work in USA zone 6??

Zones are detailed in the description, from our research it looks like all are viable in Zone 6. We do advise double checking with local growers if possible though

The sound was less good quality on this one. Thanks for the content though.

Yes I agree about the plant name on the screen. Also for beginners like me- it would be helpful to say if the plant has a ‘nickname’ or common name. It would be easier to remember. Great video. Thank you.
