What a good idea Irene. There are a few with my names or derivatives of (Angela). I've a couple on my wish list but never get round to sourcing them.
Good luck with what you buy

That's a good idea, but I have never looked for a plant with Sheila in the name . . .

Lantana is happy in any soil, prefers sun, but is not totally hardy, i.e. needs shelter from frost. I've often thought of trying to 'Bonsai' one, but haven't yet ;)

Rosemary Irene sounds nice ...


Rosemary Irene

'This evergreen low mounding shrub has fragrant foliage and has superior blue-violet profuse flowrs throughout spring.

Its prostrate habit is ideal trailing down over retainer walls and built up gardens. The foliage can be used in cooking either fresh or dried.

Rosemary is a resilient plant thrives in dry situations and easy to shape.

It is suitable in most garden situations preferring fertile soils and frost protection whilst getting established.'
