Garden Favourites
At the Orangery we specialise in stocking top quality herbaceous perennials. Herbaceous means that the plant has non-woody stems that reach their full height and produce flower within one year, before dying back over the winter and then reappearing the following spring ready for a repeat performance. The term perennial essentially means that the plant will live for more than two years.
