Musa basjoo

Japanese Banana

The Japanese banana is the hardiest banana species in the world and brings a truly tropical feel to the garden with its enormous, fan-shaped leaves. The plant can reach up to four metres tall and grows at astonishing speed. The above-ground parts die back in winter, but the roots survive temperatures down to -15°C and reshoot vigorously in spring.

Garden Dahlia

The dahlia is the queen of the late summer garden, with an overwhelming variety of flower forms and colours. From July until the first frost, this tuberous plant tirelessly produces blooms in red, pink, yellow, or white — from small pompons to dinner-plate-sized flowers. Dahlias make excellent cut flowers lasting weeks in a vase.
