Broad Leaf Thyme Caribbean (Morden SM4)
Gifted
It is called several different names. This is a very unusual plant and it will NOT overwinter in this country. However if you take cuttings which I do and keep the small one going in the winter. I plant it out in the summer and it will grow quite large. In a pot. Just take off a piece and put it in a glass of water until it roots. It can be grown indoors in a sunny place. Always grow Herbs in full sun. It can be used in exactly the same way as the normal Thyme. Don't overwater. This is only a baby I HAVE ONLY JUST POTTED IT UP. DONT MOVE UNTIL MORE ROOTS FORM.

Red Salvia cutting (Morden SM4)

She is only a baby but has big intentions. I love these easy to grow plants that prefer poor soil in the sun. Grow them in the shade and they won't flower.

I am happy to include any other plants if they are not already promised. Plenty of verbena left. They grow fine in pots.

Two Woodruff cuttings (Morden SM4)
I love this very pretty woodland plant. It spreads slowly and has wonderful white flowers in spring. I grow amongst my plants but it’s a typical plant to grow under a tree or around some shrubs. It goes away in the winter and comes back again in the spring & will spread slow slowly. I have just dug the bits today and it’s okay to just put them straight in the ground and leave them alone.

White Lacecap Hydrangea (Morden SM4)
Gifted
This is a very pretty hydrangea, I like lacecaps because I think that they are quite delicate. It is not ready to plant. I have potted it on today. PLEASE WAIT UNTIL THE ROOTS FILL THE POT BEFORE PLANTING. Maybe even keeping up until spring to plant out Hydrangeas like a semi shady spot, they will grow in the sun as long as they are not baked all day. Cuttings are always worthwhile because put them in and forget about it and keep doing it and soon you will have a lovely garden full of plants. I am happy to add plants if they not promised

Sambucus black beauty shrub cutting (Morden SM4)
Gifted
This is an extremely beautiful shrub and very large too it is not for a tiny garden. It can grow to 10 feet high and at five foot wide. It has pink flowers which is very stark against the black foliage and followed by black berries. The sunnier place it is in the blacker the leaves will go. Mine is in semi shade. The picture with the pink flowers is from the Internet the other pictures are from my garden. THIS CUTTING HAS ROOTS BUT NEEDS TO GROW A LOT MORE BEFORE PLANTING OR YOU WILL LOSE IT. I reduce mine in the winter to around 3 feet to stop it getting too big. When it is fully grown. Please remember that all my cuttings are small plants and will take time to grow. Happy to include other plants if not promised.

Meadowsweet seedling attracts bees (Morden SM4)
Gifted
This is one of my favourite plants I just love it, it’s much prefers a damp position I have no idea if it will grow in a dry one. It is tall and grows to about 5 feet and is about a metre across. Plumes of fluffy white flowers adorn it in June - September. It is a herb and has its uses but I have no idea how to use it. The seedling has been out all winter and is out now. It’s ok to plant now if you keep it watered. It will recede in the winter.

Creeping phlox (Morden SM4)

Here we have a very beautiful Creeping Phlox . It is new to me this year so I dont know how it will perform. It flowers in april and may. It will grow in sun or semi shade and will cover the ground and also the weeds. As you can see , it's only a cutting but it's a great time to plant to build up roots over the winter. Low growing suitable for a rockery or ground cover. I HAVE NO IDEA OF THE COLOUR SORRY. It's ready to plant.

White Lysmachia 6 roots (Morden SM4)
Gifted
It’s a lovely plant and it’s no trouble at all, the slugs and snails seem to ignore it. It will spread slowly and come up every year. All I do is cut it down at the end of the year when it seems to be finishing. The first picture is in my garden, it’s the one with the white spikes. Mine is grown in full sun. They die down and come up in the spring. Ready to plant right away. Just plop it in. Sorry they are smaller but will soon grow. You can dot them around on bare patches.
