    Chrysanthemum 'Paul Boissier' has double flowers in a glowing rich copper, beginning with classic Japanese painted regularity, later opening further to reveal a central eye. It is just the perfect embodiment of the subtle beauty of golden Autumn sunshine on freshly fallen beech leaves. Nice honey scent. Will probably require staking

    1989. One of the shorter varieties at just 60cm tall. The overall effect is muted and sober with sombre dark bronze leaves that set off beautifully the flowers which are orange, stained with distinct rust spots at the throat and lightened with yellow veins down the centre of the petals and bright yellow stamens. Darker buds complete the picture.

    Epimedium x warleyense ( Ellen Willmott ). E. alpinum x E. pinnatum subsp. colchicum. The upright stems of delicate coppery orange flowers set this hybrid apart from most epimediums. They are held well up above the foliage in a warm orange haze. The leaves are apple green in a mildly spreading clump that is a little less dense than most species. Height 20-40cm in flower. Originally sent from Warley Place, the Garden of Ellen Willmot, to Professor Stearn as E.perraldianum when he was writing his monograph. Subsequently identified and named by Professor Stearn. for any good soil in partial shade. spring.

    Geum 'Beech House Apricot'. The tightly crowded clump of fresh apple- green foliage forms a perfect foil for the wide open rich apricot flowers. For a moist soil in sun or shade. 25cm. Very reliable colour for early season at the front of the border. We've had this plant for years and can't remember where we bought it. Recently at a plant sale we met with Angela Whinfield who introduced us to Peter Hale, the man who originally introduced Beech House Apricot. he found it growing in his mother's garden at Beech house in Edington and at the time of introduction was a significant colour break. As the true 'Beech House Apricot' is half the height of ours and much paler ours is clearly wrongly named. Its probably a seedling, un-named, but non-the-less a strikingly good orange.

    This is a compact, neat potentilla which really packs a punch. The foliage is an asset all thorugh the year being covered in silky hairs and looking for all the world like silvery strawberry leaves. This wild form has flowers that are yellow-orange with a red eye, produced on lax, branching stems. This is the sort of plant that is really easy to squeeze in at the front of border and well worth the effort. For full sun. 40cm

    Primula veris 'Sunset Shades' (red cowslip). Cowslips with party dresses. It is likely that these cowslips share some of their genes with red flowered polyanthus and although still typically cowslip shaped, they are larger flowered, more flambouyant plants with flowers in shades of red and orange. They make super garden plants enjoying the same conditions as P.veris: they need to see the sun but without drying out in summer and flower in April to June.

    Rudbeckia triloba 'Prairie Glow'. A real beauty for the Summer and Autumn garden. A mass of small, black-eyed daisies are well spaced out all over a bush 3-4ft tall like a warm glowing sunset. The new flowers are reddish with yellow tips but as they mature the red bleeds until no two flowers are alike. A plant that manages impact without being over dense. July-September. This Rudbeckia can be so floriferous that it frequently flowers itself into an early grave. Hence it can be best to treat it as potentially annual.
