PERENNIALS WITH EVERGREEN OR OVERWINTERING FOLIAGE
POLYPODY
The much-divided, rich green fronds of this strong-growing, creeping fern provide excellent ground cover. It is also suitable for a rock garden, wall, or container.
PULMONARIA
One of the best overwintering, silvery- spotted pulmonarias, it makes particularly effective ground cover. Violet-red flowers are produced from winter to late spring.
FRINGE CUPS
The clump of long-stalked, heart-shaped, hairy and scalloped leaves will overwinter in all but severe conditions. Loose spikes of greenish white flowers appear in spring.
PERIWINKLE
All periwinkles are useful as ground cover, but this also has leaves with attractive; creamy-white margins. Pale violet-blue flowers open in spring and autumn.
Perennials with Strap- or Sword-shaped Leaves
PERENNIALS WITH CLUMPS of long, narrow leaves are irresistible and always striking. Regardless of whether the leaves stand stiff and upright, or bend and arch in a more graceful manner, they are valuable for contrasting with more conventional, broad-leaved perennials in beds or borders, and can also be used as dramatic specimen plants.
YELLOW FLAG
A vigorous iris for wet sites, forming a large patch of tall green leaves with bold white or creamy yellow bands. In summer, yellow flowers are borne on erect stems.
MONTBRETIA
A bright and cheerful perennial, forming a clump of robust, sword-shaped leaves. Its arching, branched spikes of brilliant red, late-summer flowers are good for cutting.
DAYLILY
During summer, the bold clump of semi- evergreen, narrow, arching green leaves is topped by wide-spreading, ivory-white flowers with green throats.
IRIS
Erect clumps of narrow, grass-like leaves are joined in early summer by blue-violet flowers on upright, soldier-like stems. Its winter seed capsules are also decorative.
ERYNGIUM
The sharply toothed, glossy, evergreen leaves form a striking, erect clump, above which sturdy stems carry cylindrical heads of tiny, greenish white flowers in summer.
ARUNDO
This giant, evergreen grass produces long, arching, glaucous leaves, and bamboo- like stems flaunting feathery plumes in summer. It prefers a warm, sheltered site.
