Lysimachia ephemerum
Height x Spread: 120cm x 60cm
Commonly known as Milky Loosestrife, Lysimachia ephemerum forms a columnar clump of green/grey leaves. During summer tall spikes appear swamped in white buds. Buds open to fantastic cream flowers from bottom to top.
Stunning towards the back of your border or beds, or alongside a watercourse. Moist soils are preferred, however, Milky Loosestrife can cope in any reasonably good soil. Often used by florists for cut flowers, this perennial can be divided during late spring.
