As the title suggests, I’m looking for border suggestions for a natural garden.
Having spent quite a bit of time and cash on the borders since early March I’m really disappointed with how it all looks rather frankensteinish. The saving grace are the alliums and blue fescue which I planted tightly in a reasonable sized area under a conifer my wife insisted on cloud cutting. It looks awesome but the cloud cut conifer doesn’t appear to like its new hairstyle, that’s another story though.
We have another area, it’s earmarked for raised beds for next year which has sprung to life with foxgloves (I know that one) and all sorts of natural looking plants and flowers. It looks mint and hasn’t cost us a penny haha!
So...without spending a fortune I’m interested in perennial bulbs/seeds which will give us the quintessential English garden I now know I’m looking for. I’ve got evergreen shrubs etc for year round interest so am really looking to fill out the borders to the max for spring, summer and into autumn if possible.
Looking forward to any help and suggestions!
Thanks
