Overview

An upright herbaceous perennial with scented pinnate leaves and white flowering. Tall branching stems, produce rounded or dome-shaped clusters of white to blush pink flowers from early summer above the mounds of aromatic, finely divided foliage. The flowers are very rich in nectar, and the leaves can be used in a number of herbal remedies. Its natural, billowing habit makes it ideally suited to wilder planting schemes.

How your order will arrive

Pots and Packaging
Our 9cm pots are given extra packaging to protect the plant. This extra packaging consists of a recyclable plastic blister pack which is then placed in a cardboard box for delivery.

Preparation
The nursery will ensure the plant is moist while it's waiting to be picked up. Our quality control team waters the plant before packing them where necessary to make sure that the plant is suitably watered for transport. Plants with long delicate stems are secured with canes to prevent damage.

Plant on Arrival
Typically plants are delivered ready to plant and will take some time to settle, grow and look more like the product image above.
