Plant Ideas for a Sensory Garden-Touch
Lamb's Ears ( Stachys byzantia) very silk foliage feeling just like a little lambs ear.
Silver Sage ( Salvia argentea) has silvery white leaves that feel a little bit like cotton wool to the touch.
Jerusalem Sage (Phlomis fruticaosa) very soft leaves that feel a bit like down feathers.
Houseleek ( Sempervivum "Commander Hay) this plants leaves are very rigid and tough to touch
African sundew ( Drosera capensis; meat-eating plant that catches its prey using a glue-like substance on the surface of its leaves , very sticky to touch!
Teasel (Dipsacus fullonum): large spiny seed heads
Hedge woundwort (Stachys sylvatica) hairy leaves
Gayfeather ( very soft)
