 Valeriana:
Tall airy plants with fragrant, normally white or pale pink flowers in late Spring / Early Summer. The Valerian is used as a herbal remedy to encourage sleep - NB our plants mustn't be used this way as we use a soil-based insecticide. Best in sun or part sun and tolerant of dry soils but probably best in good deep, fertile soil.

 Valeriana officinalis
subsp. sambucifolia:
Unusual form with attractively, finely divided leaves. The flowers are white, tinged pink with age. The overall impression of the plant in the border is a white version of Verbena bonariensis. However the plants do not self seed at all (unlike the standard species) but spread by underground stems to form clumps. Sweetly fragrant. About 4ft - 5ft tall but airy and "see-through". Propagation by division. Perfect Partners: Valeriana officinialis subsp. sambucifolia in the our garden with Verbena bonariensis, Nepeta tuberosa, Lychnis coronaria Alba and Achillea Jacqueline. 16 July 2008
