the plants

a current register of all the plants I have growing for the 3-pronged garden design styles of Japanesque, Cottage, and Woodland.

aquatics

Plants that live submerged, at the water margins or marshy edges

bulbous perennials

All have different bloom periods, for compositions of continuous flowering.

climbers

Evergreen or annual, with tendrils or pads they cover uprights in foliage and flowers.

ferns

Non-flowering foliage plants that add a lush coolness and texture to the planting scheme

grasses

Evergreen or deciduous, these diverse plants fundamentally add movement to the garden

perennials

Most are herbaceous perennials. and die back in Autumn; a few remain evergreen

shrubs

The backbone of the garden, plants with long-term structure across the seasons

succulents

A huge range of evergreen shapes, colours and forms; some hardy, some tender.

trees

Plants with height and structure, decorative bark, fruit, foliage or evergreen.
