(Maltese Cross) (London Pride)  AGM 

A hardy little fellow, being native to Russia and introduced to Britain by the Knights of Malta (hence the name).  Many individual bright scarlet orange red flowers shaped like a cross appear in summer making dense flower heads which are possibly the brightest scarlet herbaceous plant we have!  A real must for much more that just a splash of colour.  Attractive to bees and butterflies.  Prefers well-drained soil in sun.  Height 90cm (36”).  Spread 60cm (24“).  Hardy perennial.   

P.S.  Named London Pride after Mr London, a Royal Gardener who raised the plant.
