Autumn garden plans


Start planning that new garden border now. Look for plants with a long flowering period and those that have two or more seasons of interest with flowers, fruit, colourful stems and/or interesting foliage. Choose plants with different foliage colours and shapes, and remember that while evergreens help bring structure and winter interest they may need livening up with deciduous plants. Use winter and spring bedding plants to increase the seasons of interest, and plant bulbs for extra splashes of colour.
