Polygonum orientale | Kiss Me Over The Garden Gate Clive Nichols Perennial | Hardy | Self-sowsThis old fashioned plant that used to be called Persicaria, and is sometimes called the Princess Feather, has long stems of cascading clusters of small rose pink flowers, they bloom from late summer into autumn, and add movement and a romantic charm to garden borders. Also lovely added to posies and bouquets as it's a great cut flower. Loved by bees and other pollinators too. It is quite sensitive to low temperatures, so it is not fully frost hardy,
