They associate well with other familiar plants such as Astilbe and Hosta.

Peninsula Hybrids are selections we have made over a number of years.  The colours are pastel and beautiful; plants supplied may vary compared with those illustrated here but we are certain you will not be disappointed. These hybrids flower in May into June.
