Prunella grandiflora | Red Cap Lilacs and it thrives on neglectAlso known as large flowered Self Heal, this lovely herbaceous ground cover is a tough plant that will thrive in full sun or part shade. Grows to 25cm tall and 50 cm wide, it loves a moist spot until established. The blooms stand upright on strong, but short stems. They're very showy, deep pink clusters from summer into autumn. Great value and really hardy. Easily divided in winter for fresh clumps that can be spread around the garden for more colour.
