Limnanthes douglasii

-

Also known as the poached egg plant, so called for its bright yellow centre bordered with white. Hoverflies and other aphid-eating insects such as ladybirds and lacewings love it so it’s a good one to plant as a companion to plants with this problem, e.g. lupins and roses. Sow: March to May

Flowers: June to September Height: Up to 0.15m
