This plant has a tendency to die out after a year or two if grown in anything but free-draining soil.

I have six of these in my front garden bed....LOVE them. They dance in the winds and I see hummingbirds daily. In the fall I cut them back nearly to the ground so they come back full and not leggy.

A very stately perennial that looks like Gypsophila but a lot larger. The flowers float like a white cloud above the big, shiny foliage. A good substitute for Gunnera, since it's hardier and easier to grow. The butterfly larvae can chew the leaves down to the veins some years.

This South-African little shrub has aromatic, evergreen foliage that our cats like to rub against and chew on. It's considered a collector's delight and is reportedly rare. It has self-seeded in our rock garden.
