Talking Dirty - A podcast by Get Gardening - Wednesdays

Categories:

The Wonder Woman returns! Derry Watkins of Special Plants is always inspiring and this week, returning to chat with Alan Gray (East Ruston Old Vicarage) and Thordis, is no different. Last time she appeared we took a tour of some of her garden, but we were left wanting more...we only just glimpsed the gravel garden before phone battery forced us to head inside. So this time round we're dedicating the podcast to her drought-tolerant plants...and what a list of plants it is! Part two arrives next week with yet more inspiration!PLANT LISTPhlox paniculata 'Blue Paradise'Trachelospermum asiaticumSalvia greggii 'Stormy Pink'Paeonia cambessedesiiSalvia rosmarinus 'Green Ginger'Ugni molinaeEryngium 'Pen Blue'Eryngium × oliverianumEryngium bourgatii Graham Stuart Thomas's selectionSalvia yangii (Perovskia atriplicifolia)Cephalaria transylvanicaErythrina crista-galliAlbizia julibrissinIochroma fuchsioidesSonchus fruticosusVerbascum roripifoliumEuphorbia 'Blue Dome'Salvia 'Nachtvlinder'Corydalis ochroleucaStipa giganteaOriganum 'Kent Beauty'BougainvilleaParahebe perfoliataGeranium incanum
