    The decorative, bronze-purple foliage of this impressive new form emerges in a flurry in spring, and is soon followed by open clusters of bell-shaped, purple-blue flowers. Wonderful in both naturalised settings or more formal, herbaceous borders, Jacob's ladder is a much-loved, cottage garden classic.

  • Garden care: Cut the plant back after flowering to encourage a second flush of flowers. In autumn cut the faded flowerheads down to the ground and compost the dead stems.
