Shop Eucomis bicolor

Eucomis bicolor - Pineapple lilly

Known as the Pineapple lilly - An exotic looking perennial bulb with wavy strap like leaves, from which purple spotted stems emerge forming a raceme of pale green & purple resembling a pineapple from midsummer into the Autumn, this then forms an interesting seed head lasting until the first frosts.

A native from South Africa this plant looks great grown in large containers. Ht 50cm x Sp 60cm

Stipa Tenuissima 'Ponytails'

Officially now known as Nassella tenuissima but mainly known as the Mexican feather grass or Ponytails.

A compact evergreen grass forming upright clumps of airy silver-green foliage topped with fluffy, feathery beige flower heads which constantly sway with the slightest breeze & by late summer the whole plant turns a golden buff colour.

A really useful garden plant as it unifys many a planting scheme, pairing well with such a wide range of plants. A great grass in a gravel garden, a naturalistic or prairie border, coastal gardens or in a contemporary setting, it also lends itself well to containers or pots.

This grass requires full sun and well drained soil, its very low maintenance & drought tolerant, so great for a hot dry site in the garden.

Ht 60cm x Sp 50cm

Supplied in 9cm pots ready to plant out

Our Full range of Miscanthus grasses are ready now, with some new additions extending the variety and colours of these great grasses,

Suitable for mass plantings, use as a single specimen, or even in large containers.
