Astelia banksii

That's a very nice one ML

Perfect colour and a good size plant J. Will be lovely with the white foxgloves!

I like the silver sheen on the leaves. Sounds nice with white foxgloves - very Chelsea!

Ah, the old 'mixed' blessing! ;) Hope you get 'lucky'. I bought individual plants of the ones I wanted this year...Digitalis lanata and Digitalis ferruginea....I'm hopeful that they will be good, they are looking healthy enough, in spite of the horrid weather, and their foliage is much prettier than the ordinary foxglove's.

Sounds a good plan Julia . . . is this hardy?

lovely julia :o))

That's good news - it's a lovely plant. :)

Meadow I dont have any white foxgloves but Ill look out for some seed for you so you can have hundreds next year. They would look beautiful planted en masse. Ive grown Candy mountain and mertonensis this year. There may be a few white ones in the candy mountain batch. They would be gorg with the astelia.
