In this dry garden the Triteleia ixioides 'Starlight' (triplet lily) is flowering between the evergreen orange-bronze leaves of Libertia peregrinans 'Gold Leaf' (wandering Chilean iris). The flowers of this cultivar of the cormous perennial Triteleia are cream with a pale purple stripe down the centre of each petal.

A pool of blue Chionodoxa sardensis (lesser glory of the snow) welcomes visitors to the Gravel Garden at the Beth Chatto Garden, Essex. The flowers of this bulbous perennial looked great growing amongst the upright golden leaves of Libertia peregrinans (wandering Chilean iris) and alongside the grey felt leaves of Verbascum (mullein).

The evergreen foliage of Libertia peregrinans 'Gold Leaf' (wandering Chilean iris) was catching the low early spring sunshine in the dry garden. This suckering herbaceous plant grows as clumps of narrow orange-tinted leaves, and with short stems bearing clusters of bowl-shaped white flowers in later in the season. Here it was making a great contrast with Euphorbia rigida (glaucous spurge, gopher spurge).
