Re: Late Autumn Perennials


Thanis, Louise.  Something else for me to keep in mind for the spring 
planting season.  You might consider adding Scabiosa ochrelueca (I have a 
nasty feeling I missspelled that one) to your list.  In my garden it gets 
about 30" tall with large numbers of small (1 1/2 inch) white flowers.  
Blooms for a long time (mine is still blooming after 2 months), and so is 
well worth it even if the bloom stalks tend to be a bit long, whippy and 
bare.
My Papaver atlanticum are still blooming too, not bad performance from a 
plant found in North Africa, but they are in fact a bit hardier than P 
ruprifragum.
