Sea lavender

Here are some sea lavender plants growing out back.   They're very pretty and they have a pleasant aroma, which is slightly citrusy and also repels insects.

They're also very hardy plants and although they prefer full sun and good drainage x these have tolerated shady conditions and clayish soil.

Fringed wormwood seedlings

These little babies are a couple months old and ready to get potted up, or planted out somewhere with partial shade.  They are very soft and fluffy looking and have a pleasant aroma which is naturally repellent to insects.
