Hardy's on the Road This weekend will see us at the National Gardening Show at Shepton Mallet, Bath & West Showground as well as Robert Hardy attending Wolverton Manor Plant Fair on the Isle of Wight
Hardy's Gardening Tip for the Week: Lots of your summer herbaceous perennials will be setting seeds so this will be the time to be collecting them whilst the weather is still good and the seed heads are dry. Make sure you collect seeds in paper bags and label clearly what you have collected Ensuring that you do not touch the seeds with your hands |

BORAGINACEAE
Honeywort is a genus of annuals, biennials and perennials, grown predominately for their long-lasting bracts, which are usually deep blue or purple. The small flowers within the bracts vary from white or yellow to dark blue, purple or red.
There are 10 species, most of which grow in dry meadows across the Mediterranean.
They grow best in full sun, with free-draining soil and most are drought-tolerant. All will seed freely.
