Our Michaelmas Daisies or Symphotrichium (as we are trying to learn to call them) are in flower now. We have a wide colour range, white, mauve, purple, pink. These are the novae-angliae type which does not get mildew. Not many places stock these. Their only drawback is that they are rather tall – 100cm. If that is too much for your border, give them the “Chelsea chop”.
