The ANCHUSA will give clear blue before the Delphinium come 
and will stay in bloom for about three weeks. The yellow spires of the 
THERMOPSIS give height, and the foliage, unbeloved by insect pests, 
is good throughout the summer. The hardy and dependable SALVIA 
gives low gentian-blue. The perennial Foxglove, DIGITALIS 
AMBIGUA, has neat foliage and soft primrose-yellow flowers. It 
does well in half-shade as does the THALICTRUM with it’s feathery 
blossoms. The CENTAUREA with striking flowers like small Thistles 
and the dainty ASTER are valuable for mid-summer.
