The small grasses border was started earlier this year following the removal at the end of the last year of row of huge lleylandii trees growing at the side of the back garden. The grasses are in a small ‘bump’ that juts out from the border and at the side of one of my greenhouses. The border was originally in front of the hedge, but as the years went by this small border, and the greenhouse, were slowly engulfed by the hedge. The remainder of the border is an assortment of perennials and annuals and shrubs. At the back is a small oranmental cherry tree and a wigwam of sweetpeas. To the side of this is a small herb garden which will be added to in the future.
