Wild collected by the late Michael Wickenden as a Nepeta species but we suspect something else. Tall, branched spires of tiny bright blue flowers, 1.4m.
Similar to Isodon but we haven't narrowed it down!
Collection site wasn't recorded but likely to be Yunnan, China/Myanmar border area.
Albuca sp. G&L13£6.00
Collected Sentinel Peak in the Drakensburg Mtns. Deciduous foliage and strong stems of green stiped white flowers in summer to 50cm. Hardy to -10C when kept dry here.
Disporopsis sp from Japan£5.00
New to us this more compact species makes neat clumps to 25cm. Like an evergreen Solomon's Seal and a useful evergreen groundcover for shade.
Thalictrum sp. MCW109£5.00
A Michael Wickenden collection (Yunnan?) with early growth, dark stems quickly ascending to 1m-1.4m with loose heads of creamy flowers in late spring.
