Another of the delightful plants that is well in flower at the moment is Jacob’s Ladder (
Polemonium caeruleum). It is an easy to grow plant providing flowers throughout the summer. It forms neat spreading clumps of light green pinnate leaves, with stems around 2-3' high bearing clusters of open or bell-shaped flowers in various shades of blue or white with contrasting bright yellow stamens. I bought it for the caravan garden and transferred it to home a couple of years ago. It has done even better here than it did there – perhaps because it was too dry at the caravan.
