Polygonatum - Solomon's Seal

 Delightful woodland plants which combine beautifully with ferns and other woodlanders. Tolerant of most shady positions they like humus rich soils typical of deciduous woodland. If you like Polygonatum, take a look at closely related Disporopsis, another genus of elegant woodlanders with exquisite tubular flowers that enjoy similar woodsy conditons to Polygonatum.

Check for Solomon's Seal sawfly damage in early Summer. Harmful if eaten.

Myrrhis odorata

Myrrhis odorata

£5.80 (2 or fewer items) £5.45 (3 or more items)

{Description}
Sweet Cicely, fully deciduous. In Spring it produces beautiful soft, hairy, pale green leaves, and then later small heads of cow parsley type flowers. Brushing past it releases the sweet aniseed scent, and it's often used in the preparation of stewed fruit to reduce the amount of sugar needed. A must for the herb or wild garden.
{Cultivation}
Grows well in dry shade, though best with semi-shade.
