Sensational Seedheads

Seedheads in many wonderful shapes and sizes are adding interest to the garden at the moment, with many lasting well into the winter months. Throughout spring and summer, these plants did a fantastic job of introducing colour with their flowers and foliage, and now, as colour slowly fades from the borders, their contribution continues in the form of architectural seedheads. 

Not only do seedheads introduce eye-catching shapes and textures; particularly magical when gilded with frost, they also provide food and shelter for wildlife during the colder months.

Here are some of our favourites looking good now:

1. Agastache 'Blue Boa'

2. Eryngium giganteum

3. Glycyrrhiza yunnanensis

4. Ligularia japonica

5. Lunaria annuua

6. Marrubium libanoticum

7. Miscanthus sinensis

8. Phlomis russeliana

9. Stipa calamagrostis

10. Vernonia arkansana
