Whilst relaxing with a book I studied my garden, my book was slowly losing its appeal! I realised how bare my garden not only looked, but felt. It is strange to say that your garden has a feeling, but it certainly does. My garden didn’t encourage growth, innovation or adventure but plain, safe and to put it simply dull! I was recommended sowing sweet peas due to their glorious blooms and enticing scent but being a total beginner gardener I was a little lost… lying i was really lost, and I knew nothing about sowing or transplanting them or any other plant. So I turned to the internet, and it is safe to say what I found was of no use at all. Either written in gardening jargon, or simply poorly explained, I was even more confused than I was before.

Of all the garden plants which give high value for a small financial outlay, one of my favourites has to be Cerinthe major ‘Purpurascens’. For the price of a packet of seeds, you are unlikely ever to be without this plant as it readily self-sows, although not so much that it seems if its progeny are outstaying their welcome. How could they? With evergreen glaucous leaves and deep plum bracts, Cerinthe major ‘Purpurascens’ is a quiet low cost plant which attracts attention for its gentle beauty and high value to bees.
