We`re at the Chinnor Village Hall, Friends of the Earth Thame Green Living Fair today. @chinnoropengardens is also on this weekend, with lots of gardens open!
Flowering now, this speedwell Veronica ‘Shirley Blue’ is great for bringing bees and butterflies into the garden.
A mat-forming herbaceous perennial, it will grow to around about a foot to a foot and a half.

These are varieties of Salvia nemorosa. They have spires of flowers that bloom for weeks on end from early summer. Perfect for our lovely bee visitors!
Too striking and beautiful not to share again!
Siberian type Irises are clump-forming with narrow leaves. They like a moist soil and full sun, and can be planted in a mixed border as they don’t have a rhizome that needs to be baked. (Some types, including the Bearded Iris, need well-drained soil and have a rhizome which needs to be baked).
The Siberian type varieties that we grow at @stottsnursery include Caesar’s Brother, Sparkling Rose, Summer Sky, Perry’s Blue, Yellow Tail, Tamberg and I. chrysographes.
Pictured here are Iris ‘Tamberg’, Iris ‘ Summer Sky’ and Iris ‘Perry’s Blue’

The bees are loving this Geranium phaeum `Lily Lovell`! Excuse the wonky videography🤣
Phlox divaricata ‘Blue Moon’
This is a low growing, shade loving phlox which flowers over several weeks from early Spring. The blue flowers pump out a delicious perfume and the stems are slightly hairy.
It likes dappled shade, in a soil with a little moisture.

Silene flos-cuculi ‘White Robin’ (formerly Lychnis) aka Ragged Robin.
A white form of our native wildflower Ragged Robin, this plant likes a damp soil in full sun or partial shade. It often grows in ditches and damp hedgerows but is perfect for the garden too.
We’ll have some White Robins with us the @rareplantfair at Kingston Bagpuize this Sunday! Hopefully see you there!

It’s still morning somewhere!
Today we’re at the nursery with Billy and a couple of gorgeous Siberian typed irises.
Beautiful plants with narrow leaves – they’re flowering now so it’s a great time to visit @stottsnursery
Even on drizzly mornings plants will still shine!
Perfect raindrops cling to Thalictrum ‘Elin’ – a herbaceous perennial that can reach 2.5 metres tall with sturdy upright stalks. In summer it will have sprays of lavender-pink flowers with creamy coloured stamens.
Also pictured is Epimedium x youngianum ‘Niveum’ – a more compact herbaceous perennial with white bell flowers in Spring. Good for ground coverage, its leaves will flush bronze in Autumn.
Both like a spot in the shade.

Uvularia grandiflora likes slightly moist soil and comes from dappled, shady woodlands. Isn’t it lovely with its twisted leaves and striking petals?
