Tiarella
These are shade loving plants, but they will be happy with morning sun. They will flower their heads off with no sun (55% shade is ideal). The varieties we offer are chosen for their mildew-resistance; however, extreme drought followed by watering may give the right conditions for an attack in warm weather. Even moisture is preferred. Too much fertilizer can kill them, so do take care if applying a mulch. They are on the whole very tolerant of dry shade, by that I mean planting under deciduous trees and shrubs. However, they are not suitable for planting under conifers.

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).
