Plant wish list - April
I'm currently reading books and magazines to decide what plants might suit my borders. Here's my list of potential plants so far. I'm going to look these up on the internet to check prices and suitability. I hope to create a new list each month with new plants that will look good during the current season.
Back border
Fritillaria persica - grows to 3ft, needs a sunny, sheltered spot
South-east border
Pulsatilla vulgaris 'Eva Constance'
South-west border
Dodecatheon meadia - hardy perennial, grows to 16 ins (need to check if it likes shade?)
Brunnera macrophylia - robust, sun or shade, reaches 18 ins
Vinca minor f. alba 'Atropurpurea' - hardy, evergreen, cool shady border - even likes it under trees - NOW BOUGHT
Epimedium - hardy perennial, shady border
Meconopsis - shady, add manure and mulch well (see Gardener's World offer in April issue) - BOUGHT SEEDS WHICH ARE GERMINATING IN GREENHOUSE
Front border

I will update this post with links to images and info about each plant. If I purchase it, I will add it to my 'plants I have' list.
