Disporum

 Related to Polygonatum, though smaller, and Tricyrtis, they like woodland soils in partial shade. They are rhizomatous, have deeply veined foliage and dainty fairy bell flowers that combine well with small hostas and ferns. Flowers are followed by attractive Autumn berries.

Meconopsis cambrica

£5.50 (2 or fewer items) £4.95 (3 or more items)

Welsh poppies, should possibly be a true poppy or indeed the only true meconopsis. They will seed around and naturalise in shaded beds and always look refreshingly lovely. Maybe not for the tidiest of gardeners but suited to a more, how shall I say, informal and naturalistic approach! Mainly orange but you may get a yellow or red (Frances Perry).
