Mostly Compositae

Ligularia 'Britt Marie Crawford' and Helenium 'Sahin's Early Flowerer'

Iberis gibraltarica 'Betty Swainson' (white) and Sedum 'Angelina' (yellow in foreground): Argyranthemum 'Jamaica Primrose' and Dahlia 'Tally Ho' behind.

Helenium Sahin's Early Flowerer, Monarda 'Ruby Glow'. Lythrum salicaria 'Blush'. The Helenium and Monarda make a lovely combination.

Achillea 'Pomegranate' - another Sahin selection

Salanova lettuce from Rijk Zwaan: delicious and highly ornamental

  1. John - A lovely Helenium. Rather puzzling though that Sahin's catalogues do not list it. Do you know of a seed source?

  2. Just found a source of roots in Prince Edward Island! I assume this is not a seed strain.

  3. 'Sahin's Early Flower' is a clone propagated vegetatively. It does not set seed.

  4. Great post and some really useful tips there. I love resource lists like this. Have social bookmarked it in the hope that others can also benefit.
