If you want to keep bang up to date with what’s new in herbaceous perennials this is the blog-daddy. Graham Rice is editor-in-chief of the RHS Encyclopedia of Perennials and is a prolific blogger. OK, so perennials are his job, but even so – the dizzying rate of new plants he mentions makes me feel ever so slightly woozy. I do try to keep up – honest! I like the look of the new Potentillas especially.
