Echinacea 'Green Twister' is a distinctive coneflower with lime-green petals flushed lilac-pink toward the centre, giving each bloom a fresh, two-tone look that draws the eye through summer.

It forms a sturdy clump with upright stems and prominent central cones, making it excellent for wildlife-friendly borders, prairie-style planting and cut flowers.

Plant in full sun or light shade in well-drained soil, avoiding sites that remain wet in winter. Once established, it is notably tolerant of heat and short dry spells.

Deadhead to prolong flowering or leave some seedheads standing for autumn structure and birds, then cut back old stems once growth finishes.

Echinops 'Blue Glow' produces metallic blue globe-shaped flower heads on sturdy stems, bringing strong form and cool colour to sunny borders from high summer onward.

The rounded blooms contrast beautifully with looser planting styles and are excellent for pollinators, while the stems also dry well for lasting arrangements.

Plant in full sun in well-drained soil, including poorer or drier ground where many softer perennials might struggle. Good drainage is especially important in winter.

Water while establishing, but once settled the plant is notably drought tolerant. Remove spent blooms if preferred or leave seedheads standing for structure.

An iconic and highly sought-after Oriental Poppy, 'Patty's Plum' is celebrated for its uniquely beautiful and sophisticated flowers. It produces very large, papery, bowl-shaped blooms in a stunning, dusky shade of mauvy-plum, a colour that is both rich and elegantly muted. At the base of each delicate, crepe-paper petal is a dramatic, deep purple-black blotch, creating a bold and theatrical eye at the centre of the flower. The blooms are held on tall, bristly stems above a clump of coarse, hairy leaves. This variety brings a touch of drama and high fashion to the early summer border, pairing beautifully with blues, silvers, and other purples. After its spectacular but brief flowering period, the plant becomes dormant in mid-summer, a clever survival strategy for its native dry climate.

A timeless and elegant classic, 'Perry's White' is one of the most famous and beloved of all Oriental Poppies. It produces huge, breathtakingly beautiful, bowl-shaped flowers in early summer. The enormous petals are like pure white, crumpled silk, creating a wonderfully delicate and romantic effect. At the base of these pristine white petals is a dramatic and contrasting deep purple-black blotch, which surrounds the central, architectural, velvety-black seed pod. The flowers are held on tall, strong, bristly stems above a substantial clump of coarse, silvery-green, hairy foliage. Like all Oriental Poppies, it will enter a period of dormancy after flowering, dying back in mid-summer before new leaves emerge in autumn. It is a true garden aristocrat, bringing grace and drama to the border.

The ultimate red Oriental Poppy, 'Beauty of Livermere' is a truly magnificent and dramatic perennial that commands attention. It produces enormous, single, bowl-shaped flowers, up to 20cm (8 inches) across, with huge, silky petals of the most intense, pure, blood-red. The sheer vibrancy and size of the blooms are breathtaking. At the base of each petal is a large, jet-black blotch, which creates a bold and dramatic central eye. This is contrasted beautifully by a boss of purplish-black stamens. The flowers are held high on strong, bristly stems above a substantial clump of coarse, hairy, grey-green leaves. It puts on its unforgettable, flamboyant display in early summer before entering its summer dormancy. For a splash of pure, unadulterated drama, no other poppy can compare.
