Verbena:
... I recently bought two verbena plants from the garden centre one was a verbena bonariensi, the other one a short purple verbena that is good for ground covers. There are a few other plants in this group of flowers. The reason why I bought the verbena bonariensi is that it is a good nectar plant attractive to butterflies. This is quite a tall plant grows up to about 150cm s has a spread of 45 cm. This flower... Read the full review: Verbenas in the garden by mumsymary |

Allium ... is the name of the onion genus in the Alliaceae family. Onions, leeks, chives garlic are grown for culinary purposes; I grow all of these and have written reviews on them in the individual categories.

Coriander ... love coriander in my food - I especially love it in Thai curry or salads so I thought it would be a good idea to grow my own. I thought it would save money on buying it in packs.
