Ammi majus
Contrasting pink and white lacy flowers attract more pollinator diversity; tall larkspur provides wind protection for delicate Ammi stems.

Where to source
Get growing in United Kingdom
Shop local first
The best plants come from a real nursery, and the best trowel comes from the old-fashioned ironmonger down the road — people who know their stock and can advise. Try local first, both for the plant and the kit. It keeps small growers and small hardware shops alive.
