Daisy
it just looks brown and dead. Have I lost it? Hello Burtie, Some daisies-type plants are annuals, so they would naturally die after a few months. Many however are perennials and could live for years if hardy. Do you have any photos of it when by BURTIE

Brunnera Jack Frost
My Jack Frosts have been lovely this spring, masses of new growth and flowers.  I have cut back the flowers, but the plants are still growing strongly and are threatening to over shadow the hardy fuschias and other perennials that are struggling by sallya42

what to plant

Planting beneath buddleia and weigela
is hardy geraniums. They make a good weed-free ground cover, tolerate the conditions, are useful to the bees, and very pretty in season. I would have thought that plenty of other perennials would work too; maybe you have more choice if the small plants by Cumbriafanatic
