WELCOME TO AD HOC PLANTS

ERIGERON Asteraceae
Erigeron aphanactis 9cm...£2.50
( North America ) Narrow, hairy, grey-green leaves form small tufts of foliage, over which are held golden button-like flowers. Gritty loam in sun.
Erigeron chrysopsidis s.sp austinae 7cm ... £2.25
Narrow linear foliage covered in fine hairs, in tufts emerging from a slightly woody crown and numerous short stems of bright yellow 'button' flowers.
Erigeron chrysopsidis 'Grand Ridge' sold out
Erigeron elegantuus 9cm ... £2.50
From the dry interior Northwest of America, this 'fleabane' has clumps of grey-green linear foliage and bright violet-blue flowers with a golden heart. Dry, sunny spot.
Erigeron flabellifolius 9cm...£2.50
A distinctly different 'fleabane' from Wyoming. Pleated, flabellate ( fan-shaped ), mid-green leaves form a three-by-six inch, slightly woody shrublet with, in late Spring, white, large-petalled daisies, which slowly fade to pink. From steep alpine screes.
Erigeron linearis 7cm...£2.50
This is an attractive plant ideally suited to a well-drained position in full sun where it remain in character - a dome of fine, blue-grey linear foliage and many brassy yellow flowers on three-inch stems.
Erigeron oreganus 9cm...£2.50
Rosettes of slightly sticky, bright green spathulate leaves and from these radiate short stems carrying delicate, fine-rayed, pale lilac flowers. A 'fleabane' from vertical cracks and crevices in Oregon. Has a quiet charm.
Erigeron pinnatisectus 7cm...£2.50
Slate-blue, finely dissected leaves in congested clumps, form attractive mounds in a free-draining, sandy soil and on short one-inch stems, delicate lavender daisies.
Erigeron pygmaeus 7cm...£2.50
Erigeron scopulinus 9cm...£2.50
A small, creeping evergreen species for a moist soil; but to flower well, I find it needs some sun and then it will produce a good crop of small white flowers in late Spring.
Erigeron uncialis var. conjugans 7cm ... £2.50
Surely one of the tiniest species, with small clumps of unusually, entire spathulate, deep green leaves and large white, fine-rayed flowers. Choice.
