The plants in the list I either grow in my own garden, or they are plants
that I've come to know from other gardens and particularly like.
For the plants I grow myself, almost all of them, with few exceptions,
are dual-purpose - this means that they are attractive to humans
while also providing food and/or shelter to wildlife.
Linum grandiflorum
Some plants in the list have 'W' next to the name. This means that they
were photographed at Westshores Nurseries in Winterton in North Lincolnshire
- www.westshores.co.uk.
Westshores is well known for its wide range of ornamental grasses and also has
a good selection of herbaceous perennials. They also do mail order.
