Leucanthemum x superbum `Phyllis Smith`Leucanthemum x superbum `Phyllis Smith` is a frilly-flowered leucanthemum that is worthy of a place in any cotagge-style garden. The new growth begins in early spring as the new shoots emerge from the ground. By July, the plant is 1,5 metres high and by the end of that month, the flowers begin to open, revealing the pure white petals with egg-yolk yellow centres
Berkheya purpureaSubmitted by admin on Tue, 07/22/2008 - 05:14
A fast-growing, long-lived perennial, Berkheya purpurea has a long, single taproot and forms a dense clump of very prickly foliage tight on the ground. The large green leaves arranged in a rosette are up to 250 mm long with wavy, very spiny edges. The upper surfaces of the leaves are almost shiny, whereas the cobwebby undersides are covered with long, soft, white hairs. Smaller leaves are produced along the single flowering stem; these leaves diminish in size upwards and their bases continue down the stem forming broad spiny wings running down the stem-an interesting feature of Berkheya purpurea.
