Over the last twenty years or so there has been a huge amount of work done worldwide by specialist plant breeders which has led to a great improvement both in colour and form in this tough group of winter flowering plants. Lambley is proud to offer the results of some of the best of this breeding. I find in my own garden that the dark flowered forms, beautiful though they are, need to be planted rather sparingly as their full beauty is only realised when surrounded by paler colours. The paler colours make a much more telling show in the dull light of winter than the darker clones which can get lost in the gloom.
