Inspired by the grassy hills you see in fields with a solitary tree .... we have attempted to recreate the feeling on a much smaller scale.
A tree, planted not centrally, but a little on the wonk and slightly leaning, is under planted with a combination of perennials and grasses to emulate a wild flower meadow…
We have also used buxus balls of different sizes to continue the gentle mounding shape of the bed...
The perennials include knautia, nepeta , spires of salvia caradonna, Achillea Moonshine
and the amazing little aster monch and
catanache caerula.
Grasses include a stunning blue oat grass and the simple little filler Deschampsia
Geranium Johnsons blue weaves through the grasses at the edges of the border ...
We can’t wait to revisit in a few weeks to see how it is establishing xx
