For gardeners who see hot, sunny sites not as a limitation but as a design opportunity. Hot & Rocky combines resilient perennials with characterful grasses to create a lively rock-garden planting that performs beautifully in lean, gravelly soils. Iris, Liatris, Salvia, Scabiosa and mat-forming perennials provide changing waves of colour, while Festuca and Sesleria add calm, movement and year-round structure. The I Love Gardening version deliberately includes more flowering perennials, rewarding you with greater seasonal variety and more opportunities to shape the display. A strong choice for sunny front gardens, gravel beds and contemporary borders where drought tolerance and garden design belong together.

Romance can be wonderfully uncomplicated. The Easy Care version of Romantic & Delicate uses a focused selection of dependable perennials with a stronger framework of ornamental grasses. Anemone, Geranium, catmint and globeflower provide soft flowering accents, while Calamagrostis, Deschampsia, Festuca and Sesleria add form, movement and a calm visual rhythm. The reduced plant palette keeps the design harmonious and easier to manage without losing its delicate character. The result is a soft, romantic perennial border for gardeners who want atmosphere and seasonal beauty without dedicating every free hour to maintenance.

Mediterranean & Fragrant turns a sunny part of the garden into a small holiday retreat. Lavender, calamint, catmint, sage, thyme and other aromatic perennials combine fragrance with a long and varied flowering season. Verbena and Perovskia add airy height, while Deschampsia, Festuca and Sesleria weave the planting together with fine grass textures. The I Love Gardening version contains a particularly generous perennial mix, creating a richer experience of colour, scent, movement and seasonal change. Selected for warm, relatively dry conditions, many of these flowers are also attractive to pollinators. A fragrant perennial garden for terraces, seating areas and sunny borders – relaxed, sensory and unmistakably Mediterranean.

Hot, sunny and dry can still look beautifully designed. The Easy Care version of Hot & Rocky focuses on a tighter selection of resilient perennials and structure-giving grasses. Sedum, Saponaria and Scabiosa bring colour close to the ground, while Festuca and Sesleria create calm, compact forms and a clear framework. The more grass-led composition supports a dense, coherent planting and keeps routine care straightforward. The result is a contemporary, drought-tolerant rock garden for gravel areas, sunny front gardens and warm exposed sites – strong in character, visually varied and designed to demand less day-to-day attention.
