Upright branches covered in a profusion of pure white flowers in spring
Exochordas are shrubs that will delight in the spring with their extremely pure white flowers. The variety MAGICAL SPRINGTIME® is a recent selection whose branches are upright and covered from top to bottom in flowers in April and May. Its straight, lightly spreading habit differenciates it from the variety 'The Bride' whose branches are more arched and habit more weeping. This shrub requires no maintenance. It flowers on both the current year's wood and on older wood, and with the right conditions will flower again in the summer.

A resistant hebe, easy to grow and highly ornamentalHebe 'Celebration' is a highly ornamental variety that we have chosen for its resistance and easy cultivation. It has variegated, almost two-toned leaves: dark green along the central nerve and very light green across the width of the leaf, with a light pink edging.The overall effect is of a dense and very bright foliage. Its highly colourful flowers add to its interest. Numerous clusters of melliferous flowers of an intense magenta appear at the end of May and continue through the summer. It's a robust plant which naturally forms a well-branched, dome-shaped shrub with a tendancy to spread with age. It makes an excellent shrub for your garden or patio. A higher resistance to excess water makes it less sensitive to phytophtora than classic varieties.As a plant originating in coastal climates, this veronica may need to be protected from frost in winter.

Abundant flower heads on strong stems
SWEET SUMMER is remarkable for its about 20 - 25 cm long, dense, cone shaped panicles. The sterile flowers are at first green, then white, and finally pink, and bloom progressively from the bottom to the top, the flowers thus offer a pretty layering. The very small fertile flowers are naturally hidden. The flowers renew themselves all summer long. the shrub simultaneously carries panicles of all three shades.The flower stems are strong and stay well upright, without dropping due to the weight of the panicles in full bloom.The heads can be used as cut or dried flowers. In autumn, the foliage turns from yellow to purple red.
