Some of their bumf:
In amongst this riot of form and colour is all to easy to forget the part that native British species can play. Not only are they beautiful, elegant plants that look 'just right' in nearly every garden but also because they are the plants that our native British wildlife is best suited to simply because the flora and fauna of these islands have evolved together ensuring a perfect ecological fit.

I doubt a butterfly or a bird believes in evolution any more than I do, nor are they likely to prefer a local native to a local alien if it tastes OK and is available, any more than I do when I shop at Tesco's.
None the less, it is nice to have a dash of green in the riots of reds, blues and yellows.
It's suprising how many naturally occuring British plants have green flowers. (Not that I can name one.) |
