The Flower Border: The wonderful thing about gardening is that you are free to create as you wish. Lovers of shrubs can establish a shrub border, while wonderful spot beds can be made with annuals; and roses can be really spectacular when they are grouped together. But surely the most interesting sight of all in the backyard must be the flower border that provides a little bit of everything—annuals, perennials, shrubs, bulbs and roses.Cosmos daisies (Cosmos bipinnatus), have been in every garden that we've ever had. They produce all summer long, make great cut flowers, and even the lacy foliage grows to good effect in the border. Plants are tall and perfect for the back of the border. Look for 'Can-dystripe' with white petals edged with crimson or 'Sea Shells', the new flower that has petals that curve in on themselves like delicate denizens of the sea. Plants like full sun, are half-hardy annuals, and take about 5 days for germination.
Borders, patterns and pretty flower motifs give these walls masses of Moorish interest. A base coat of a burnt saffron colour, washed over walls with a big brush for a slightly uneven finish, is adorned with a graphic flower pattern and a border of black, terracotta and blue. A fretwork pattern that's pure North-African style is stencilled below, for a look that's atmospheric, but subtle. |
