Lamiaceae
Phlomis russeliana
Jerusalem Sage
If you only grow one Phlomis this one must be at the top of your list. The large felt-like, heart shaped evergreen leaves, green above grey beneath, make a dense weed proof mound. The strong stiff 100cm stems are encircled with whorls of soft yellow hooded flowers. Handsome the year round, this plant is happy in sun or light shade. 100cm x 75cm.
