Usually grown as a herb, try growing chives for the beautiful purple flowers. With many gardens at Chelsea combining both edibles and ornamentals, chives are a great choice!

Grow chives in your own garden and sow Unwins Chives Fine Leaved.

 

Nasturtium

Many gardens in Chelsea took advantage of the age-old gardening technique of Companion Planting. Nasturtiums are a fantastic companion planting flower, often being used as a sacrificial plant to protect the important crops!

Nature's Haven Nasturtium Whirlybird Tangerine produces beautiful vivid orange flowers. 

 

Heuchera
