‘Thomas Edison’ is the garden’s grand inventor of drama — bold, brilliant, and unapologetically luxurious. His huge, velvety blooms shimmer in deep royal purple with an almost electric glow, commanding attention from every corner of the garden. Each petal curves perfectly, creating a bloom that’s both powerful and elegant. Strong-stemmed and prolific, he’s a classic for cutting gardens and borders alike. With his rich colour and stately presence, Thomas Edison lights up the garden like pure genius.
