| Description | Melissa officinalis 'Lime'
Lime Balm is a perennial herb that shares many characteristics with its cousins lemon balm and mint. It is as easy to grow with a distinct lime fragrance. When planted in the garden it enjoys a moist soil with dappled light. Like Mint, Lime Balm can grow quite quickly, spreading to its garden borders, so be sure to plant it in a contained garden bed or pot should this be an issue. Also like its cousins, Lime Balm will die down or back completely in the colder months, but rest assured it will return every year as lush and leafy as ever!
Lime Balm can be used in many culinary dishes as well as dried for tea or pot pourri! And if none of these tickle your fancy, this plant is absolutely gorgeous along garden edges in Cottage, Potted or Culinary gardens, adding that gorgeous lime fragrance when you brush past.
4"/10cm pot size. | Ficus obliqua 'Figaro'
'Figaro' is the naturally compact, low growing form of Ficus. This evergreen little shrub produces thick, glossy green leaves and minimal to no flowers in the cooler climates. It is incredibly hardy once established, even tolerating frosts and coastal conditions whilst maintaining its tropical look.
See our Ficus Hedging & Screening Factsheet here for more about the different Ficus varieties!
For care instructions, features and more, check out Additional Information below | Quercus robur
English Oaks are famous for being solid and strong. The trunk and secondary branches are very solid and are covered in thick blackish-grey bark which makes it quite a sight.
The autumn foliage is a rich, dark brown. As the foliage is smaller than other deciduous trees, fallen leaves are not particularly difficult to eliminate and will not clog drains.
10"/25cm pot | Agapanthus praecox minimus
Dwarf Agapanthus are smaller and more compact, great for narrow borders and gardens with less space.
• Fine, strap-like lime green foliage
• White umbel flowers appear on tall stems above the foliage
• Extremely hardy, tolerating poor soils and drought
