Gentians are hard plants which are well known for their beautiful flowers. They originate in cooler climates many being from mountainous regions. There are several kinds of Gentiana and we mostly sell G. sino ornata which is also known as the Chinese Gentian. They are generally blue in colour but this G. Little Pinkie is a very definite pink. The foliage is semi evergreen and the lovely flowers are produced from early summer into autumn. www.camolinpottingshed.com

We are very excited at the prospect of doing shows again in 2022. We already have several lined up and just hope that they all happen and that Covid does not intervene. We have many new and exciting plants to bring to the shows and which of course are available by mail order for those of you who cannot travel to the shows. You can either order on line or alternatively give us a call with your list and we will take it from there for you. I will be posting some more new introductions as the weeks...
