The following are easy to plant and grow; size is Width x height:

Ajuga reptans 'Burgundy Glow'

Excellent evergreen plant. Arguably the best multicoloured foliage ever cultivated, clear white- yellow,pink and purple foliage on each leaf. Very distinctive colour in full sun. Can be grown in part shade. Any soil .Blue flowers autumn.Keeps leaves all year round. 2ft x 2ft Tip-The secret is to chop back as often as possible to get this very distinctive growth. Below left-

Sedum spurium coccineum 280pix Photobucket

Sedum spurium 'Coccineum'- In summer this is a 2ft x 1ft mainly red and green ground cover plant. Tip-The more you pinch out tips the bushier and better it becomes! A great novelty plant which contrasts with other different colour spectrum's.The stems redden in autumn /winter strongly. Above shows this and the flowers in Autumn.


Photobucket Delosperma nubigenum

Delosperma nubigenum-Perfect circular form and shape from this 3ft x 1ft ground hugger. Beautiful succulent texture with these light green fleshy leaves. Above pictures end of May in bud.  Outstanding daisy yellow flowers in summer time.

Sedum spathulifolium 'Cape Blanco'-This alpine is stocked by no less than 47 RHS recommended Nurseries. Its popularity is from its beautiful blue,white curled fleshy foliage with contrasting yellow flower in spring. Outstanding.

Plant Purchase Benefits- 

1)winter and summer interest providing flower and leaf colour.

2)All year round foliage colour

3)Perennials-live year after year

4) Cold weather resistant

5) Specialy selected for colour spectrum combinations

6)Excellent Autumn planting kinds.

Returns policy-In the unlikely event of plants being damaged or the standard being poor a refund can be discussed and given where necessary. For most plants at present it is harder to give a replacement due to being a home hobby and not always carrying extra plant stock numbers. Hopefully this can change in the future with more funding as you enjoy these plants.

Shipping and plant details-

By parcel, first class and dispatched every day other than Friday,Saturday and Sunday so plants don't get delayed in the mail bag over the weekend particularly on Sunday.

Named plants listed above are cutting grown and potted up myself into 9cm pots with good root systems.

Pots will be removed on delivery. The horticultural term is 'bare root' where most soil is carefully washed off enabling roots to be kept in prime condition for delivery purposes. This reduces weight and delivery costs to the consumer and gives the plant a head start by increasing soil contact when planting. Full instructions for planting are provided. To maintain plant quality they will be packed carefully in water retentive towels in peak condition-just unwrap and plant it couldn't be easier!

Terms and conditions-Payment can be taken by pay pal immediately. Checks,bankers drafts,postal orders take a small time clear if your payment is prompt and are welcome as I wont have to pay Pay Pal transaction fees. The above are the only payment methods I offer.Just follow the alternative Ebay payment options.

My low start bidding price reflects less Ebay traffic and therefore more opportunity with less people bidding currently. Great season for bidding opportunists.

About me page- See my ''about me page'' by clicking on blue and red icon saying me at top of page.

Qualifications-Qualified with National Diploma from Pershore Horticultural College. Questions welcome!

Have fun and enjoy the plants for both summer and winter seasons!
